as shumon tweeted, this was the intersection of what the root ops were
willing to say. given that, i am surprised they said anything at all.
i guess they had to say something, and this was about as little that
could be said to be 'something'; impressively content free.

an interesting measurement experiment (not atlas) might be to see the
smallest number of PR departments needed to remove all useful content
from a post-mortem. :)

well, that was the point I was trying to make: when you do a PR, people usually expect to learn something.

In that case, I got the feeling that I learnt absolutely nothing, while the PR was kind of finger-pointing

to solutions such as Atlas, telling that they do not necessarily represent real life.
