In this case, they needed routing to the internet because they needed to search and read from the internet.

Yeah. Unfortunately a model that only knows how to use a language's standard library isn't that useful. I am not sure why they had a pull-through cache instead of just asking Microsoft (their biggest investor) for a local copy of NPM or something, but ... they did. I think people thought you couldn't route to the Internet through Aritfactory and were proven wrong by a clever bug-finding model. So it goes.

I don't think their safety measures were the best, but "just sink the cluster to the bottom of the ocean so nothing can get out" isn't a training methodology that results in a model that people will want to use.
