@rysiek ✅ somehow avoided triggering it in staging/QA env

@rysiek As they say: Everyone has a testing environment. Some are lucky to have a separate production one.

There is a book called Normal Accidents:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_Accidents

The author puts forth three rules that define systems susceptible to catastrophic accidents which are completely to be expected:

- the system is complex
- the system is tightly coupled
- the system has catastrophic potential

This describes huge cloud providers like CloudFlare very well, and specifically describes the last outage very well.

CloudFlare, AWS, Azure, GCP are simply Too Big Not To Fail.
