Ciaran, your initial argument was that stable users won't see those failures as architecture teams will spot them during stabilisation. This is wrong, above cases will turn up after a successful stabilisation with full QA. Nobody ever said, that spotting those is bad, so for me this discussion has ended. Enabling by default for everyone (not all users are experts, like it or not) is a bad idea as it causes many false positives and has drawbacks for just-users. For me following your turns and twists through a discussion is not worth my time.
