"Security" is not the same thing itself, it cleaves meaning:

1) Hypervigilance; which is unsustainable.

2) Carefree ease; which is what the champion Red Bull athlete achieves from constant practice and repetition.

I thank Kelly Shortridge (https://kellyshortridge.com/blog/posts/) for pointing out the cleavage.



These are interesting distinctions.

I'm working on distinguishing a whole cluster of things that frequently get collaopsed into the same mushy confusion;

security, safety, reliability, resilience, protection, sustainability...

And there's also inner and outer security, which I think your remark addresses.

Thanks for the link which I wasn't aware of.
