One of the blind spots we have here is that I can't get people to think about the question "how long would it take to get a one-line code change into prod?"

That would mean looking at some things that people don't want to think about. So we try to feature toggle everything instead, and we dedicate extensive resources to keeping the old version of code as hot standby at all times.

These aren't bad solutions, it's just that they should be something we do in addition to being able to deploy quickly, not as opposed to.
