My Dad taught me this term 8 or so years ago. Another way to say it is 'normalcy bias,' yes?
Also, I always enjoy your post and am just so swamped that I cannot comment enough. I am very glad to be on this ride with you!!

Yes it's related I can see after reading, but that bias is about the current condition persisting and being certain it will persist with no dangers presenting themselves like disasters. So yeah the old/current contrasted with the abrupt new reality/info that they don't want to face. Good catch on the similarities. Thanks for the feedback :)
