I just used "poking a dead body with a stick" vs "reading the autopsy report" as a metaphor to describe why logs after an event are not always enough.
I'm either having a tough morning or I'm a horrible human being.
I can work with either.
And honestly, I think it's the later because I blamed @wilw because he's been all over my news feed recently (objectively a good thing) and I had Stand By Me in my head because if it.
