Every human knows that governments and bureaucracies are inefficient in some way. It's been mocked since the dawn of times. The issue is that you don't toy around with big legacy systems like you do with twitter. To satisfy their little immaturity and get political points on their fans they start ripping off everything without enough time. If they started real medium term efforts to analyze, organize and then migrate it would be different. Plus there are other factors due to human group and political time that will come back later and muddy things up again when someone feels like fixing elon's patch.

But is that a problem? Or is that functioning as intended?

Generally speaking, I want my government to be stable, predictable, and consistent over fairly long time horizons.

This is the point: A well functioning bureaucracy allows for repeatable predictable outcomes

> Bureaucracy is always risk averse. Without outside intervention, they will always try to operate as before.

Same with your body, by the way.
