In general it blows my mind that people don’t understand that:
1) losing a critical mass of developers is the beginning of a death spiral
2) the critical mass is smaller than you think
3) you lose the developer months before you know you’ve lost the developer

This absence of "distracting noise" is sometimes even seen as a sign of improvement, in reality it is the beginning of the end. And so hard to catch, since us humans are bad at realizing things aren't there anymore.
