There aren’t many three sigma customers, and it’s cheaper to drop you then fix the bug.

You might like the short film “Please Hold” for a more nuanced take.

By three sigma customer, I meant that I've taken thousands of Uber rides in three years, and tipped very well. They have completely ignored what a positive outlier the account was when deciding to abandon it.

In triage, my customer segment is one you'd want to save. At least thinking rationally as a business owner.
