Overall, I found this to be a good read and fairly accurate, but my assessment finds it to be lacking on two major issues:
1. Recency bias. The author only goes back 100 years to find the largest so...
2. But if a weakening magnetosphere treand continues at pace, even the weakest solar flare disruption could last DAYS. You'd need to trust Data Centers to be hardened enough, and fiber optics to be unaffected in order to weather the storm.
The more important concern: if the magnetosphere is weakening rapidly, when's the big human-roast gonna happen?
