Agree with all of this. Related to deployment process or lack of one, the hour of the deployment has always struck me from the beginning. The largest impact was in the United States yet an update was pushed very early hours US time.

Presumably the off-hours deployment wasn't because of lowering the potential impact as they sent it to everyone.
