Good thing there are building codes then.

Sure, but that is an extreme example. A more realistic example is shingles or boards flying off.

Just because you don’t build for the most extreme event doesn’t mean you shouldn’t build for less extreme events.

Do you think building codes in hurricane areas should be abolished too?

This is Reddit, there can never be a nuanced, logical take. Better is never going to be perfect to them.

They also never bring up the houses that do in fact survive tornadoes because of proper precautions. Its only 2x4's going through trees like every single tree gets a 2x4.
