Doesn't something lasting 4,000 years imply massive over-engineering?



depends, if you want your glorious mausoleum to last _forever_ then it lasting 4000 years would imply "correct" engineering to me


If your message is “there are forces at play which can erase your civilization entirely from the face of the earth” then no, it’s “just enough” engineering.
