How critical was this website? How much would people be put out if it was down for a few minutes?

  With all due respect, I don't want to go into all the details of a previous employer and their relationship with that client so that people on the internet can retrospectively tell me whether I made the right call or not. Suffice to say, as I've leveled up as a developer over the years, there are many decisions I've later realized were naive or misinformed. With all the knowledge and experience I have now: I have zero regrets about the above standoff. FWIW if someone told a dev to FTP-cowboy develop at that company now, they'd be the one getting fired. When I was there, the company was in the midst of transitioning into more serious web dev practices.
