Be in Florida, and end up in a Flood zone, OR buy a property with Owl's or other un-movable protected wildlife if you don't pay attention. Best friend has a property next to him in Cape Coral, that is home to 2 mating Owls... They "Own" it. Guy bought it, owls were found, can't build. Also can't sell it. Its functionally useless. But you still have to pay the taxes on it....

As someone who used to test PTR builds for WoW for game breaking bugs prior to release to the PTR servers, prior to Activision buying them *(Austin, TX location)... I can tell you that one must "Log into the build" as QA step #1. You have a QA team for EXACTLY this type of thing. They CLEARLY didn't so much as log into this build to do any testing of ANY kind. They used AI to write code, assumed it was right, and that it would break nothing, SKIPPED the other 99% of their job, and hit the "Rease to Production" button on their screen. Then went out to have a smoke and talk about Stranger things with Co-Coworkers... ;-)

Basic QA 101, of ANY kind, prior to release = "Logging into the Build" Its functionally "Step one" and was clearly skipped. This is an utterly embarrassing lack of any QA of any kind. Even PTR test builds for WoW, were sent through QA/QC prior to release. I know, as I was one of the people flagging those bugs when I worked for Blizzard ;-)
