ABSOLUTELY ---- Never do testing/experimentation using your"prod" data.
Instead always make a copy and test using that. I strongly suggest you
use "test" somewhere in the name of this copy (file) so that no chance
you would ever make a mistake whether you were working"test" or "prod".
We who did this for a living usually had separate "test"n and "prod"
logins (logged in "test", while we might be able to read "prod" data, no
write access)

There would be a "production team" whose members would have one. But a
few of us development team members did have a "prod" log in for
emergency use; say after hours and no production team members present to
submit prod jobs for us. Like its the middle of the night and the
