I also have to comment- complex systems CAN be pretty much plug-and-play, but they have to be packaged with VERY thorough automated monitoring and control integration (as a commercial COTS, pretty expensive, but since it can all be done with AT MOST 2 pi's and an added I/O bridge (as long as you have internet/intranet) not much extra at all) and people will STILL have to actually pay attention to the flags and alerts the monitoring systems send- and the kind of average unwillingness to devote attention to. not the internal workings, but just the status and operation of something that's actually somewhat important in life (that a sufficient supply of clean electricity is available) is unfortunately not surprising.
