I'm curious. Wouldn't a process to test this update before pushing it out everywhere have been enough too?

Like, isn't this showing that there are a jillion companies with no testing of certain updates?

Like, even virus definition updates should be going through testing before being pushed out.

Crowstrike offers staging like this.

The update ignored the stagings set up by the customers.
