consider $bigco making $10B year that's $20K/minute chances are, $shiny_acquisition isn't making $20K/minute, and woe is the helpful IT responder who kills the golden goose. it'd be crazy if anyone can do that, so many layers of bureaucracy & compliance have evolved to prevent that. The solution is generally (a) do work not involving production (b) work where production isn't like that, which is generally smaller companies or a surprisingly small number of ~tech companies. Digital Transformation (cloud, PaaS, ...) often involves trying to enable self-serve at enterprise-scale, but I generally still see roadblocks when GPUs, TLS, DNS, SaaS, etc, get involved.
