The susceptibility of poor situation awareness to FUD is something like fragility of a thin column with cracks to buckling, or a house of cards. It’s not that you don’t know much, but that what you know can’t hold much weight or resist much perturbation.

The real height of the column is the height of the stable rubble pile after it buckles and collapses. In that state, even though it’s a chaotic mess, it can hold more actual weight robustly. Under FUD, being deluded about a lot is a worse state than being confused about a little.
