It’s also embarrassing (and can cause stress for your customers) when your status page is down.

You should just see how Google builds the prefix lists that it allows customers to advertise to Google via PNIs. You would think they are building it off some registry lists because why else would Google insists that the routes are registered? Oh no, that's for small people. At Google they just bring up a session to you, let you advertise and take whatever you advertised to them during the setup as the allow list because everything is done via custom automated software!
I wish I could say that to my customers...
I had my first ever Cloudflare outage earlier today. It's just a free site that has a single page rule that redirects to a different domain, but it started refusing connections for a little while today.

Edit: things started working now.
In all seriousness... if a single employee can accidentally single-handedly screw things up you've got a process problem. There should be checks and balances to make sure that what you're trying to do make sense. These might be in the form of a code-review, automated validation, a staging environments, etc. Yes, these might be things that don't exist at a scrappy startup and that is fine as they'll get there eventually but for any large company not having good processes is reckless.
