I get it, esp. in a professional environment.
But “Schrödinger’s data” rubs me the wrong way. The point OOP’s making is not a question of whether the data is there or not, it’s a question of whether you can restore a botched system with a few commands and in a realistic amount of time.
Case in point: I (private person, private system) never needed to fully restore, knock on wood. But the data is there - I have (manually) restored single files or directories on a few occasions.


🤔 what does it say when you tell it something like “look, this is wrong, and this is why, can you please fix that”? In a general sense, not going into technical aspects like what OOP is describing.
