Justin - now is the cheapest time to break things; bring every go-faster option to Peter and Bjorn, even the ones you would veto
Situation
On the 8.10, 9.2 and 10 product-identity changes Brady wants, Peter told Justin there will never be a time with fewer customers, so do it now and do not wait on Peter reading the risk doc. Justin standing order to his team is to surface go-faster-by-breaking options and veto the too-big ones; Peter changed the filter: options Justin would veto still come to Peter and Bjorn, flagged as too big.
Reasoning
Breakage cost scales with the number of customers touched and that only grows, so deferral makes the same change more expensive. A small benefit with three years to pay is still worth it. A lead-level veto was hiding options from the people who own the trade-off.
Additional Context
Bjorn independently gave Justin the same do-it-now answer.
Observed Evidence
I will read the doc, but do not wait on me. Now is the time to go faster. Time is long; a benefit that is small but has three years to pay is still a thing.

There is not going to be a better time in the future. There is not going to be time where we have fewer customers, so do it. If it seems too big, make sure you are letting me and Bjorn know.
