> The FED making SVB depositors whole puts the burden on all of society

No taxpayer funds will be used. All the money being used to make depositors whole is coming from liquidation of SVB assets. There is no burden on society and the comparisons of this situation to the 2008 bailouts are just rage-bait.

I think the point is that the only work that matters is work that will improve the customer experience in some way. That could be infrastructure/stability work, or that could be visible front-end work. Not sure how you're using the word "hidden", but that's my reading from this discussion. Either of those things are important/valued by management probably. But none of that should imply or require micromanagement in a high-trust engineering org.
