    The quote box at the start of the article is the essence of it, the rest is AI-speak dressing it up.

    TLDR:

    Some outage causes a meeting with an SVP. SVP preempts the discussion with the following:

    “I know that if we get into the details, the reasons will be perfectly reasonable. You'll explain what happened, I'll understand why everyone made the decisions they made, and I'll empathise with you.

    Then it'll happen again.

    So I don't want the details. I want to know what we're changing.”
