That's a good analogy, I guess. And with there being only four main towers, I can assume why even one going offline would wreck the whole system. Why they don't have back-ups still puzzles me, but welp. RWBY does not like real-world logic. This is a world were they have robots with souls and a conscience, cryostasis, airships, and floating stadiums, yet people still travel by horseback. We don't know how much of that stuff is available to everyone. All the robots we have seen so far belong to the Atlesian military. Same applies to the cryostasis.

It's perfectly possible Amber was traveling outside of kingdom walls (the area lookes pretty wild)... or she just likes riding.

I mean, the police in my country still has an unit that patrols on horseback. Middle of our biggest cities.
