At 30k commits a day, is there anything that can meaningfully be called review?

I'm thinking about high volume mass manufacturing as an example here. I like those "How it is made" type YouTube videos. You see a production line that has some kind of QA process where cameras + automated systems do spot checks at high speeds and these crazy actuators are punching out bad examples. These processes often also involve spot checks where some statistical sample is selected and viewed carefully.

I don't think we've gotten to that level of reliable review with code, but I don't see any reason we can't continue moving in that direction.

It's conducting/steering/oversight/supervision, not reviewing.

I dont believe it, its FOMO marketing to me.
