{{risk|Risk}}s that create {{risk|fear}} in {{risk|individual}}s:
*{{risk|Individual}} screwing up.
*[[Known unknown]]s: remote but foreseeable contingencies coming about: the [[chicken licken]] scenario.
legitimate {{risk|risk}}s that do ''not'' create {{risk|fear}} in {{risk|individual}}s:<br>
*'''[[Unknown unknown]]s''': [[black swan]]s do not create fear. It is hard to blame an {{risk|individual}} for not anticipating something that, [[Q.E.D.]], could not be anticipated.
*'''[[Emergent]] risks''': (this is in some respects a special case of an [[unknown unknown]]): risks that only arise at a level of abstraction beyond that for which the {{risk|individual}} is directly responsible or accountable. <br>
*'''[[The fear of redundancy]]''': This one, we think, might be the biggest fear of all.
