I think this is the real takeaway from this so far. LTT is being called out on errors that even they acknowledged (via pins, edits, wan shows, tweets, and forum posts) and the best thing for them to do is step back, remove emotion from the public criticism, and evaluate if the number and frequency of errors benefits them, their brand, and trust.
