RE: I AM SO SAD...please update Firestorm cats too!
All it says is that, after half a century managing programmers and designing systems, I pretty much know how it goes. The promise was made and the programmer did the best he could to fulfill it. But it will, eventually, turn out to be a bad management decision.
You see, it's not a question of quality or work, but quality of design; and this is simply a bad design.
Hopefully, they'll realize it and not make more such decisions. But done is done, and, even if we never see the fallout, there will be fallout; hopefully they'll catch the errors before they go into production. But, one wonders what they'll do if they forget to put the required checks in a future Updater and accidentally upgrade some Firestorm kitties; or forget to put the old version in a future Dock and face a spate of complaints not being able to retrieve Firestorm cats.
