Meteor isn't real. It is literally just a metaphor and more fun than "we lost power" or "egress died". Anybody claiming it is impossible is silly.

You also won't lose a DC a year so you need some strict uptime guarantees to justify automatic roll over.

Prepare to avoid dataloss but needing SRE to change over is fine if you can stomach a hour of downtime.
