<p>This becomes much clearer with a balance sheet in front of you.<p>What is saving? _Spending less_, that's all.
Saving generates no income, it makes you go broke slower.<p>Independent of the price or the product, you can never save more than factor 1.0 (or 100%).<p>Wasn't there a guy on TV who wanted to make prices go down 1500%? Same BS, different flavor.</p>

<p>> I am a bit confused on the "bypass" though. Wouldn't the adversary need push access to the repository to edit the workflow file? So, the portion that needs hardening is ensuring the wrong people do not have access to push files to the repository?<p>I understand it that way, too. But: Having company-wide policies in place (regarding actions) might be misunderstood/used as a security measure for the company against malicious/sloppy developers.<p>So documenting or highlighting the behaviour helps the devops guys avoid a wrong sense of security. Not much more.</p>

<p>The community edition is not robbed of its value by this move. They provide a CLI tool (mc) for those admin tasks which previously could be solved via dashboard.<p>I have several minio instances deployed to k8s for small to medium, and non-profit projects. Easy to deploy, no problems or outages, yet.<p>But anecdotally i remember multiple occasions, where a quick tour of the dashboard convinced peers, that minio was the right tool for the job.<p>From my point of view it is much more questionable, that they "dare" to advertise the paid version with a 96.000 USD p.a. "platform fee" plus additional cost if you use more than 400TB. Small fish need tools, too.</p>

<p>As we are sharing anecdotes:<p>One of my school math teacher had the same approach in another way: We were expected to use greek letters, not latin ones.<p>Same reasoning: It showed us kiddos that the letter was insignificant compared to the concept expressed by the letter.<p>So my take would be: Your friend taught the students for the first time what they were actually doing while handling equations with "a letter in it". That is no problem of algebra in itself. It just means their previous teachers sucked.</p>
