> I recommended it be freshly wiped

If there's one thing I hate about the industry it's the adamant refusal in almost every single case to ever just "migrate a server" onto a fresh server.

Every time there are known problems. Every time they get carried over. Every time there's 100,000 excuses not to do it. And in the end it's never worth it to avoid it.

> It's hard to punish an accident

Totally. I think identifying risk is super important. And if you identify it, and it's not cost/time effective to avoid it, and it gets approved - then you're off the hook for accidents.
