Just one opinion.....

If you have an operation with some discipline, in an environment
where the exercise of discipline is enabled by planning, forethought,
and the expenditure of more than the bare minimum needed to look like
you are on the air, it is easy.

That is somewhat like saying "If you get to the top of Mount
Everest, taking pictures of the Himilayas is easy.
