Look. Even vcpkg broke which is a Microsoft product. I agree that there can be a continuum some times, but can we agree that this specific instance isn't anything like that? Even without vcpkg, the list of things impacted are anything that depends on Bazel, homebrew, conan, etc. The blast radius is quite wide regardless of documentation.
Aint nobody give a shit about you if you aren't bringing five or six figures as customer. Nobody is stopping rewrite that happened to break undocumented stuff you relied on if you $10/mo.
This case is different as breakage probably affected github/microsoft themselves
