Unfortunately, my personal experience with software engineers pushing to “roll forward” on failure is that they want to meet arbitrary deadlines. Metrics that are good for the SWE (e.g. if we roll forward, I complete my Q4 OKRs) but not good for the team—total velocity isn’t negatively impacted by a single rollback, at least not much, but reliability is positively impacted by rollback policy.
