Might be as simple as cost/effect in resource-constrained environment.

Inflamation uses up resources. When we were hunter-gatherers and had to survive ice ages - it wasn't a good idea to waste calories and vitamins just in case.

Better for 3 people out of 30 to die of flu than for all 30 to starve.

Nowadays the optimal trade-off might be completely different.

Testing vs prod bugs are always FUN.

In my first job we had warehouse management system, and for testing new versions we allowed users to log-in to test environment.

Some employees didn't knew they were supposed to only log in to prod and happily worked in their warehouse accepting deliveries, stocktaking, moving stuff in real world using test db instead of the prod one. We only realized when they moved so much stuff that the inconsistencies db vs reality triggered alarms.

They aren't bullied. They are just paid.

Nobody calls it sequel in my country.

Even people who know because then they have to explain it which wastes time for no benefit.

This is why open source for communication platforms is so important.

Discord WILL disappear at some point and millions of people will lose their communities.
