Well, it’s relative: when discussing IT we’re still groping in the dark like in in the ‘800, when collapsing bridges and buildings or exploding locomotives were the norm and competence was viewed with contempt. So you might be arguing disasters are “move fast break things” and I might be the one that disagrees
