This isn’t about “single” employee dependency though, companies are seeing significant attrition due to these policies. There’s no way to know this is safe and it’s probably hard to estimate costs.

Even in an ideal configuration where your employees are basically redundant raid drives (and yes you need to pay a lot for this redundancy which I doubt most employers do), you generally don’t want to lost too many at once, and even if you survive you still have high costs associated with replacement (training, hiring, fit, etc)

It might still be the best long term decision in some cases, but man, you better be making this decision based on more than a hunch.
