On the one hand, this entire exercise has been (and continues to be) batship insane ....Otoh this is good in a meta sense, tells about the level of resilience of the capitalist system, I think we should treat this entire fiasco as one of those controlled forest fire sort of things. Like...anytime someone tries to mention JIT or other corporate 'efficiency' nonsense, we can refer to these sort of shenanigans and shut them down.
