The cat isn’t part of the equation, I gave no opinion on that. The risk of never testing your failure response is much higher than the risk of testing your failure response.

If a test happens to save a cat? Lucky cat. If not, they’ll still have to test it at some other point anyway.

I never remotely commented that backup systems shouldn't be tested. Bizarre.

No you're just trying to suggest that a test can't be pushed up because you hate cats.

Unless you genuinely just do not understand what they mean, which is likely.

Since you're going to assume the worst possible reading, I will assume projection on your part.

So you genuinely don't understand, ok got it.
