That's almost complete... there's another three question flow which gets to yes. 1) Is stuff really badly broken? 2) Was the really bad breakage introduced recently (this could either be an earlier bad rollout, or it could be external factors changing)? 3) Is this requested deploy either a revert of a recently-made bad change or the minimal possible fix/bandaid? If all three of these are true, then you can do a deploy RIGHT NOW regardless of the calendar. (recently - because if this is something which has been broken for years then it's unlikely that it suddenly became urgent absent external change - which is already carved out above)
