2. It's not a national emergency |

It's a wake up call that we need to fix the system so that one small failure can't trip the breakers so far down the line. We've known about the problem ever since the first great blackout of '65 but I guess they don't want to spend the money to fix it.
Maybe they'll lump this in with the whole "national security" thing and finally get around to solving the problems.
