The Twitter example is the exact nearsighted reason a lot of comments like the one we're all talking about come up.

A lot of smart people spent years trying to make a resilient system and then everyone claims they aren't needed when it doesn't immediately crumble.

There are also many examples of huge gaps in content moderation, customer reps, and other "useless" functions that has lead to it's decay other than just it's unhinged CEO.

Twitter swallowed a poison pill, and we're just seeing some of the onset of sickness.
