I reject the mad-max scenario because human civilizations have failed so catastrophically in the past.
The worst it ever got was the princedoms that would become Germany during the 30 years war.
And people lived their lives even during that time.
All bets are off if it's a massive extinction event asteroid impact.
That would be tough. But a man-made non-nuclear event? We've been there, got T-shirts. The ones of us who's ancestors survived.

“But a man-made non-nuclear event? We’ve been there, got T-shirts. The ones of us who’s ancestors survived.”
Can you give an example of a 90% die-off in one year across a major nation of 100s of millions of people?

In the past, there weren’t millions of self-entitled lazy ignorant slobs who were dependent on others for their day to day existence.
The mad-max scenario is very likely.
