You’re thinking about it like cancer ceases to exist, but it’s more likely that we discover super early detection and non-invasive elimination.
Let’s use use the metaphor of a lawn that becomes overgrown by weeds. It’s difficult to control the entire ecosystem that contributes to the lawn, but if we’re able to detect a single invasive seed as it takes root, we could pluck it before it sprouts, let alone spreads. The lawn will quickly recover from a few blades of grass being removed. The longer it goes unmanaged, the more drastic measures and larger swaths must be killed to stop the weeds from overtaking the lawn.
