But God has the challenge of starting with a minuscule room, expand the cabling as it goes without being able to unplug or replace any cables or move servers during the lifetime of the system, and can't afford any downtime or shutdown for maintenance.

without being able to unplug or replace any cables

Oh! Oh! Here's where I get to bring out one of my favorite terms, which I rarely get to do: Foramen ovale.

Short version: It's a hole in the fetal heart that allows blood to bypass the (non-functioning) lungs. It usually closes up at birth. God found a way to re-route cables upon deploying the system into production.
