All digital applications increase local chaos. This is true according to the definition of chaos.

Chaos is the opposite of order. In physics, order is defined as a system for which there exists the least possible number of ways a given feature can be performed or produced.

Every digital application I’ve seen increases the number of ways a given function is performed. All analog systems have a higher degree of order.

Wherever there are more links in a chain so to speak, there are more ways the system can fail. This explains why digital systems fail more than analog systems.

I haven't observed that. The opposite holds true from my perspective.

You do know that there are many things that cannot be done in an analog fashion, don't you? Also, many analog functions were replaced by digital because the digital implementation did a much better job.

You must be an ancient analog engineer that feels displaced. ;-D
