While that's true for a good subset of crashes, the article specifically states "The effect is particularly strong when a plane is lightly loaded.... as Atlas Air 3591 was". So unless they had something pretty dense but light enough that it was well under normal load that they would call it "lightly loaded". And only something that dense would have a shot of throwing the center of gravity off by rapidly sliding forward (after being secured for the first long section of the flight) while the plane was flying fairly level...
It could have happened, but seems much more likely that something much more likely caused that crash.
Zelda: Breath of the Wild, also an amazing open world game, has something similar. A horse automatically follows the path, so you only have to nudge the controller at intersections and whatnot instead of having to be driving the whole time. You're also able to fast travel, but honestly, if the option is a 30 second load screen, or a 3 minute trip through some scenery, I'm taking the 3 minute trip most every time.
I think doing this is going to be opposed for the reason it's a gateway to additional reform of the american government. If you have your reps being able to work remotely, then why have a limit on the number of reps in the House? As per the original constitutional rule: "The Number of Representatives shall not exceed one for every thirty Thousand, but each State shall have at Least one Representative.".
This would actually resolve a ton of problems in representation, most notably gerrymandering, as you'd basically be allowing any 30k people in an area to vote someone into office. This would mean that the representatives would actually be members of a community their representing, and have jobs other than "politician". This is obviously a non-starter, because it not only would probably significantly dent the power of the Republican party (see the popular vote counts!), but the Democratic party and leaders would lose sway because 3rd party candidates would be easily competitive. It would be a huge swing to the power structure of the US, and a net positive for the people, but a huge change to the status quo.
There has been several cases where Broadband quality has been drastically improved when the local governments get fed up with the slow speeds and move to install new networks of their own. The Telcoms either jump to provide better service or the residents get better service from a local government run Telcom. It's a win-win situation: nothing like a little competition (especially in a near monopoly) to shake up the status quo and get the results we want.

I checked the btc address (1LeReNiUgHNXvvR8TpgQG1b5nzqoKeUxDY), he's got nothing but a few felonies coming his away. Not a single person paid a cent!
