It's neither.
And- You just totally distorted what cjameshuff said. Did you think the rest of us had not read his posts and would be fooled?
The reason why it is not is because you are feigning that there is a great risk present- which is not actually present.
Is there a non-zero chance? yes. Is it small enough to be considered negligible? Yes.
Is there also a non-zero chance that the Entire Planet Earth may suddenly and spontaneously explode for no reason? Yes. Am I concerned? Not in the least.
