Plugging all our cattle into a heart- and bloodpressure monitor and doing frequent blood draws from every cow "just in case" is wasteful and unnecessary. There is a balance between sensible general always-available monitoring and special-case-debugging a problem.

My rule for that is: more than once a year or more than 6h? Automate and tool it. Less? SSH or other special-case tools are fine.
