Yes it takes a million meetings, but at the end of the day it's just one IT guy making the change.

It's exponentially expensive to eliminate the base-rate of a "whoops", and not everyone has NASA-level money to waste on IT.

JP Morgan does, though.

They likely spend all of it on the million meetings full of people who wouldn't actually be executing the change, next to none of it on the team and infrastructure where the change will be made, and then fire the team who made the change.

Maybe not everyone, but if JPM doesn't then who does?
