You’re not seeing the parallels.

The original comment suggested recording every action from the cockpit and using it for analytical data. The final action isn’t the goal. The steps and discussion that got them to the final action is. Hence recording every step the pilot takes, and the equivalent would be also recording every discussion that the software developer made that influenced them to write the code the way they did.

Saying “the git commit is there, that should be good enough to know the result” is like saying “the pilot landed the plane, that should be good enough to know the result”. Why do we even need CVRs at all? The final action is right there, right?

So again, why record everything the pilot says but not everything the developer that wrote the autopilot says?
