Maybe this is a case of hindsight being 20/20 but wouldn't they have caught this if they tried pushing the file to a test machine first?

It's not hindsight, it's common sense. It's gross negligence on CS's part 100%

Well, it is hindsight 20/20... But also, it's a lesson many people have already learned. There's a reason people use canary deployments lol. Learning from other people's failures is important. So I agree, they should've seen the possibility.
