Sorry, wasn’t entirely clear on what data I was talking about. Unions fight to keep a lot of data from being automated instead of manual because the automated data can be used to build individual performance metrics. For example, some baggage handling unions fought against bag scanners because then you could tell how much work different union members did. They’re trying to keep from getting optimized to death like an Amazon warehouse worker. Unfortunately that same automated data is really useful for dealing with situations like this. Once the manually entered data is out of sync with the real world the errors compound and you have cascading failures.
