I approach this from a slightly different perspective, given my
experience overseeing millions of servers and having to diagnose kernel
problems across such a massive fleet.

To be candid, when you’re operating at that scale, kernel crashes and
hardware errors are unfortunately a common occurrence.

For instance, If every investigation (as you suggested above) take just
a couple of minutes, there simply wouldn’t be enough hours in the day,
even working 24x7, to keep up with the volume.

Thanks for the review and suggestions,
