I think all of this is just a symptom of the fundamental problem - Google employees have been told they're special and coddled so much they believe it. They genuinely think they are inherently superior to the rest of us - either customers or even just other practitioners at other companies.

Her response boiled down to "I don't know, how we do it is we <XYZ> and we're more interested in our use case".
