If a social media platform is running smoothly, but the engineers leave, why can’t a platform continue to run on autopilot?

Question

I guess this is applicable to any social media platform or other similar systems. Is it because there are always bugs to address, so it’s never really running smoothly, or other reasons?

Answer 1

If its running smoothly and you never notice any problems? That means the engineers are doing a great job…. because there were problems., and you never saw them.

That stops when this engineers leave. If not immediately, than soon.
