Did you route the support requests to /dev/null as well?
Haha, I guess support.google.com is an ACID compliant database as well.
This is how a lot of big tech companies scale support.
We've never had a support request either!
It's great. We saw a 2000% throughput increase on our business analytics platform when we switched to a /dev/null backend.
