Congestion is like traffic if every road was gated by a weight limit that would collapse it either over time or immediately and also the ensuing traffic spilling over would do the same to the surrounding roads if there were too many cars on it as opposed to just slowing down

Put your “congestion is like traffic” analogies away. I’m tempted to say more, but would ruin it. I’ll do that elsewhere.
