I still think that the store is BS because the script could not be ran
remotely during the time-frame the story was stated to have occurred in.
Other things in the store don't make sense. It's either BS or the hacker
was given special access to the facility.

Do you want to hang your security on "SHOULD"?
I think the point is that there are ways that mainframes can have a
denial of service performed against them without attacking the mainframe
itself.
A well placed bullet diesel tanks and transformers will cripple a bunch
of mainframes without touching the mainframe nor their data simply by
rendering them inoperable without a working generator or utility power.
