While it might get oranges down temporarily, its not putting a system in place to address the problem over the long haul. I'd rather see us do: 1) Raise the visibility of oranges. Post the most frequent intermittents without an owner to dev-platform every N days. 2) Make its someone's job to find owners for top oranges. I believe RyanVM used to do that, but not sure if its still happening now that he has changed roles.
