I'd rather Google fix the calender integration in Gmail first.

I used to get automatically created calender events from Gmail for hotels, flights, etc. This was really nice.

But somehow it stopped working well recently. Some emails were not regonized at all (booking.com). Some flight emails are missing return flight.

In google economics, there is no KPI incentive for fixing bugs and huge KPI incentives for monetising a new moonshot product nobody wants.

I'd like this bug fixed too. The quickest path would be to make a bounty hunt website for Googlers to fix things in their free time and push through monrepo approvals legally.

Or, get hired, fix it, and resign.
