To my way of thinking, it seems the number of failure points stays the same. Is my thinking flawed there?
Yes...
Elaborate please
Your thinking is flawed because it is not accurate.
Obviously a battery could fail, but that is countered by not having a hose that could be cut
Cut? Ever TRY to cut an HP hose? Not easy even when you WANT to, much less by accident.
Bumping could damage a hose or a transmitter, so that one pushes.
Nonsense. 99 times out of 100 a shear force that could snap a transmitter off (or just damage it) would merely cause a hose to deflect out of shape momentarily.
But I see the computer as being a single point of failure...
That's fine, but it's just not accurate.
I guess technically there are different electronics involved...
Not "technically" but rather "actually"
Remember, were talking about HOSELESS computers here.
