Not sure how you got that from my comment... I said that it's completely unreliable and can't be trusted to do even basic tasks, like not deleting the live server (in my example).

I'm guessing I didn't explain that well in my advice post? But it sounds like I mostly agree with you.

(I think saying they "do what they're told" is a bit too strong of a statement, but I think I get what you're saying.)
