If you lose complete braking ability that is a massive failure of the master cylinder or a complete fluid loss. You're losing hydraulic pressure, and it has nothing to do with any of the electronics. Mercedes tried electronic brakes once. It was a disaster. Not ever going to happen again.

You forgot about the ABS.
