"This is embarrassing. Somebody made a big mistake of the “mistakes like this shouldn’t be made” category." You have no idea what happened. Protecting against "something like this" often introduces complexity and failure cascades that are much more harmful than a simple system being offline.

I wish Manu the very best and will consider it not a failure but a success if this array/subsystem/whatever comes through without data loss.
