I'm a support engineer for dental software. So difficult issues won't get immediate resolutions, and instead development will actually have to fix things because offices will be crying at them for a fix instead of at me.

But the world won't end.

Unless we figure that the world will got completely ballistic at the prospect of multiple millions of people just vanishing, then the knock on effects won't really matter.
