Correct... Measuring reliability in terms of what's around that isn't
success
is not a valid method of measurment. One must measure the success rate.
Does anyone really believe that they are more likely to encounter a timeout
or connection drop today than 5, 10, 15, or even 20 years ago?
I think not. Generally, when you click on a valid link, you get the page.
Sometimes servers are slow, but, rarely do you run into network issues
these days. Sure, they still occur, but, they are much less frequent
than they used to be.
