That assumes the only causes of failure are environmental. I’ve definitely seen plenty of hardware failures but software failures are common, too, and keeping things synchronized is going to require more than “any people and processes” - that’s how you learn your backup has never been tested and database replication stopped working 3 days before the failure.
