1. Ship bugs
2. Fix them
3. You're the hero!

The non-programmer decomposition of that joke was painful to read.
Particularly from those outside the domain who criticised it as a 'not a very good joke' because they didn't understand it, which I think summarises the entitled mindset of many people these days.
I thought we were all doing that already?
The idea is to take the human out of the loop.
Jesus, dude. There are managers reading this.
What do you think they do all day?
The larger pattern is not unique to writing code. Think of it next time a reorg comes, or some random thing gets "improved" in the name of "efficiency" only management seems to see.
Take them out of the loop.
Unless they are not human.
