Oh no need. The client didn't noticed anything in 6 years, and the reason why we had to check is because they wanted us to see if we could add this feature... That already existed.

My favorite part is, if you do some extensive analytics from time to time (e.g. to prepare an upgrade to a new major version) and as a side effect stumble upon some workflows/pipelines/scripts constantly failing (and alerting the process owner) every five minutes for... at least a few months already.

Then you go and ask the process owner and they're just like "yeah, we were annoyed by the constant error notification mails, so we mad a filter that auto deletes them"...
