Primes

• Fallback Path
  • The price of the degraded route is made explicit as a shift in who bears the loss when a stored transaction later proves bad: in US industry guidance for communications outages the merchant absorbs it if the issuer afterwards declines the stored authorization and the customer has already left with the goods, and on this entry's reading that allocation is what keeps the option honest, since the party who benefits from continuing also pays for continuing badly.
