Silly corporation thinks they can roll back one update to undo all the damage that accumulated over several years. When it‘s a „straw that broke the camel’s back“ kind of situation it‘s not enough to remove the straw.
Corporate management often seems to think of changes as isolated, independent events, where the measurable impact of each change can be attributed to that change. I think it's a symptom of the pathological need for KPIs and Data-based decision-making. Making big decisions is scary, and data can help with informing them, but I get the impression some managers grow so dependent on using numbers as a crutch to spare them from having to justify their decision with their own best judgement.
