Ok, but most of the time you would like to test that change on a copy or almost up to date replica, to see measure things like how long it does take. If you were copying the data, with things like PII filtering, to the branch development database and allow folks to test it there it would be even more amazing. Great start tho!

Give it a shot, because the current implementation specifically side steps the need for that full copy, and does let you test functionally against fully up-to-date production data.

You're right, though, it doesn't cover all of those uses cases. Luckily, Vitess does offer most of that out of the box already. Just need them exposed through the PlanetScale UI. :)
