I don't know what this has to do with anything, when the blackout doesn't have a known cause yet.

Well, the cause is known - it's many causes that have accumulated. Of course, maybe more research will bring some more definitive conclusions - but overall the core mechanisms seem to be well understood, at least to the extend on what will be needed to avoid similar scenarios in the future.

I don't understand why your reply is so aggressive though.

What is upsetting you by others talking about the blackout?

Especially understanding the economic impacts better, seems to be a reasonable thing to do?

Overall, there seems to have been very little effect on the economical growth of both countries - even though it has been a regular business day.
