I would say that the lesson here is that cross-vendor replication is more important than intra-vendor replication. It is clear that technology can (largely) avoid data losses, but there will always be humans at charge

Nitpick: true replication is high-availability, not disaster-recovery (i.e. not a backup)

If wrong data gets deleted, and that gets replicated, now you simply have two copies of bad data.
