Accepted priority churn during RLC Pro/Plus pivot

February 12, 2026 at 2:53 PMoperationalmedium

Situation

Explicitly approved Justin's explanation that priorities and confidence levels will shift as his team pivots to Pro/Plus work. Told Justin 'And that churn is fine.'

Reasoning

Three major product launches in three weeks (Pro Feb 19, Pro AI Feb 26, Plus AMD Mar 4) naturally creates priority turbulence. Fighting that turbulence would be counterproductive. More concerned about successful launches than stable intermediate metrics. Gives Justin explicit permission to reorganize without bureaucratic friction.

Additional Context

Justin had just updated Jira tickets after Peter flagged TPS report issues. Justin proactively warned about upcoming churn. This came during the final Riyadh travel day, right before C-Suite Sync.

Observed Evidence

Direct Slack DM exchange. Justin warned about churn, Peter explicitly approved it with 'And that churn is fine.' Clear approval language.
