// today's reading
Mercury squares your architecture domain today, Cancer. You're defending a decision made three sprints ago while the team wants to pivot the event-driven topology to reduce vendor lock-in. The trade-off is real and you see it clearly—but no one wants to hear that the legacy approach has better SLA guarantees. Document the ADR today and move forward; being right later matters more than winning now.
