While it may not be a good idea for an individual to do this type of job, it can be quite lucrative for a business.

If you're a business that can get its products embedded into the "default procedure" of your customers and only get noticed if you don't work (e.g. Stripe, Twilio, AWS, etc.), customer churn is minimized and continued revenue is the default.

Totally. Interesting parallel I hadn't considered. Set-it-and-forget-it SaaS is a sweet place to be :)
