Agree with your take - an organization should be united in a common goal.

But I don't think the right column means "Apparently everyone hates sys admins."
Instead, I think they perceive sys admins as telling them to fuck off, and hating them. In the poorly structured teams i've been a part of, the ops team was pitted against everyone else by making their incentives not align with adding features/making changes. The ops team would frequently take the knee-jerk response of "no" to any suggestions or requests.

So yeah. It's a problem. The whole matrix is on-point, though :) Thanks for posting it.
