> The literal evidence proves that this approach is absolutely workable at scale, so “the worst possible way” clearly doesn’t apply. The “worst possible” to me implies that it is possible. Think about trying to solve the same problem by hurling engineers into an erupting vulcano. It is expensive, hurts the morale, causes staff retention issues, but also fundamentally does not solve the task of scheduled task running. I would not describe that as “worst possible” because it lacks the second factor by not being a possible solution.
