Occam&#x27;s Razor is heavily abused.  It has a specific definition, and is typically used for scientific and metaphysical hypothesis [1], not human behavior, which is not a universal law.  It is used as &quot;a heuristic technique&quot; and &quot;is not considered an irrefutable principle of logic or a scientific result.&quot;  Occam&#x27;s Razor says nothing about what the actual truth is - it&#x27;s just a tool use when choosing hypotheses to pursue.<p>Even if we were to contort Occam&#x27;s Razor into this use-case, there is countless evidence for state actors adding or requesting back doors to major routing hardware.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Occam%27s_razor" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Occam%27s_razor</a>
