Network is not a SPOF. Poorly implemented network can be though. My team manages a global network. We run outage simulations quarterly ( to check for unintended consequences of changes ).
Part of that process is to down all circuits and services from a vendor.
Could vendors be sharing upstream Concentrations that create SPOF. Sure they could. That’s why we contract a single vendor to create truly diverse services.
We see 100x outages and failures from craplications vs network.
