Satire. Come on people, I know it's early but this is hard to miss:
Sure, you might get your precious “predictability”,
but at what cost? I mean, can you even still remember
that rush of intrigue and anticipation you get when
your application refuses to work on two of the twelve
servers it was deployed to? The thrill of the hunt as
you figure out exactly which configuration settings are
different and, of those, which one is causing the
problem? The sweet taste of relief that you get after
hours upon hours of debugging finally narrowed it down
to a rogue registry setting?
