So if someone manages to put out that torch...then what? No Olympic games? Everything canceled, don’t bother coming?

Or just light it up again and continue? IOW, who cares.

The torch running from Greece is like a primitive religious ceremony. It originated in the 1936 (Nazi) Olympics. No one needs to get stressed out if the flame has to be re-lit.
