The difficulty of producing code WAS one of the circuit breakers.

We had tests, CI, code review, QA, architectural reviews, etc. None of those disappeared. But they were designed for a world where producing such a large amount of change was impossible.

Tests don’t solve that. Tests can tell you that the behaviours you thought to test still work. How many times have you had a completely green CI with 100% coverage and still shipped a bug?
