They had a 5% request failure rate at the peak of this outage. So a botched rollback could definitely do more harm than good if the impact isn’t 100% understood.

And when you have 100% of requests failing for a service, you ought to be thinking about doing a fast rollback for that service as long as you have confidence that such a fast rollback won't take other infrastructure down.
