"On Dec 11 at 7:30 PST, our main database crashed & corrupted some of the data. This is unplanned & we've been working around the clock to restore it. It's a painstakingly slow process given the scale of data. We unfortunately have no ETA but we're doing everything we can."

Not necessarily in this instance, but non-zero people espouse "HA is too brittle and too complicated" to rationalize not putting in the work to ensure resiliency and instead double-down on shrug at operational excellence.
