At that time we clearly were dealing with failure modes - most particularly vaporization of "gateways" (routers) and other devices in a nuclear blast.
There are many who seem today to want to deny that that was a major goal of the early packet switched networks. And it seems that that denial has lead to a lot of designs that make the net far more brittle.
These include things like MPLS, SDN (which is also in 5G), and other forms of "traffic engineering".
And the cross-linking of things like power and telephone with the Internet makes things more brittle in the sense that once-broken, recovery is made more difficult.
I studied railroad safety - they learned that everything - and I mean everything - breaks, so they stack multiple layers of redundancy. On the net parallel paths are good, but parallel routing protocols are needed as well.
