This is all true. But we _do_ have known best practices that reduce the impact of bugs.

A most trivial staged rollout would have caught this issue. And we're not talking about multi-week testing, even a few hours of testing would have been fine. Failure to do that rises to the level of gross negligence.

True but they are under time pressure to add definitions for emerging vulnerabilities.
