I just saw a scary image of the wall of a plane being ripped out mid-flight and someone in the comment section said that it was a perfect example of the burnt toast theory.
The two people that were supposed to sit in the area of the wall collapse missed their flights that day so no one got hurt but what does this have to do with the burnt toast theory?

The idea, as far as I understand it, is that some inconvenience or diversion from your hoped-for outcome turns out to protect you from something worse.
