Release Speed Means Very Little If Users Cannot Rely on the Product

A lot of teams still celebrate speed first:
more releases,
shorter lead time,
faster change.

But users do not experience your process.
They experience whether the product works predictably when they need it.

That is why SRE matters:
SLIs, SLOs, error budgets, and a clear line between moving fast and burning trust.

Reliability is not the opposite of speed.
It is what makes speed sustainable.
