No, this isn't about reliability or fraud.
An news anchor brought up a good point. Lots of people are getting excited about how Democrats are beating Republicans with mail in votes. It sounds nice on the serface. But we also need to remember all those people won't be voting on election day, because they already voted. So you have to subtract those votes from election day totals, not total count, just the number of people who show up on election day.
My fear is that this will give Trump the illusion of winning on election day, and he will use that to declare victory and try to use the courts to end the vote counting of all early and mail in votes.
