Sounds like someone wants to go on-call.
You too can enjoy being paged at 2am for a flaky disk, a cron job related traffic spike, and AWS outage, or any of the wonderful things pagers get paged on.
And you can re-read your essay after being awakened repeatedly for false alerts, knowing that non-prod alerts are now first class citizens and you are their Shepherd.

But a wave of alerts for servers that were retired but their alerting wasn't, or hair trigger thresholds that pop when a new crown job pushes the load up 1% over WARN... The issue is "production is defined by what humans are expected to maintain all night long" and dev ain't prod broskies.
