The opinion of the article is that the catchphrase has become an excuse to build poor observability and in-prod testing tools, and we should be better about that.

The problem is that this article is misusing the catchphrase and now people are discussing the misuse of the meme instead of the article's content.

Is that a problem that actually exists though? I've certainly never encountered it, as the types of teams the are strict about good pre-release testing are also the types of teams that are big on observability.

Haha that's why I said "opinion". If you're curious about my opinion. I think there are some good points, that observability tools could be better. I think "throw it over the fence to ops" is a slow-boiling problem coming down the pike. Are observability tool abjectly poor though? I don't think so.
