For perfectionists, I use the line that most tasks don’t need to be 100% correct, unless you’re landing an airplane, then 100% is just right. I suspect what your business does, it also needs to be 100% all the time. Interesting to hear about the various aspects of getting it right
Thank you for sharing this insight.
The level of engineering required for this must be phenomenal
