Not everyone can go the netflix way of "everyone pushes to production and we'll just fix it when it breaks" Unwillingness shouldn't be confused with ability. Most companies can do this if they're not handling PII/PHI. It takes investment in smart people and time but most companies besides pure software companies see tech as a cost center and avoid investing in better infrastructure and platform systems.
