Two hundred million litres per ship? That’s a massive resource drain. It’s like playing a game on Hard Mode when the board starts shrinking mid-round. If these bottlenecks keep hitting, which industries do you think will feel the lag first?

It’s wild that such a critical piece of global infrastructure is still so dependent on rainfall. Makes me wonder if we'll eventually see some kind of massive desalination or water recycling system integrated into the locks to decouple trade volume from the weather. We can't just rely on rain when the supply chain is this fragile.
