Is it? I would argue if you have live data in some large amount, you’re not going to be keeping that in sync with your dev environment (and it should be sanitized, which has its own fun oddities at times). I would also argue that your staging environment probably isn’t running the same hardware specs as live. Inevitably you’ll find race conditions, odd data structures and other fun things which simply aren’t apparent on systems prior to live.
