I think a thing to say about Resilience Engineering and opposition to practices like Root Cause Analysis is that it is wrong to consider RCA as an alternative to a thing that came _after_ it (contributing factors): we must consider it as an alternative to what came _before_ it.

In this (imo proper) context I think it's clear that RCA was very effective for many of the people who used (and still use) it. I think what RE needs to say (and many people _are_ saying) is that while RCA works, there are other things that can work even better.

Replying to @ReinH
one challenge i’ve been navigating recently is how to design a postmortem/LFI tool that handles people transitioning from “blameful” or “none” to “RCA”, and also handles people that have adopted more modern processes. it’s hard!

hm, i’m (mostly?) in agreement with you about RE and so on, but in the end there’s still a record or history, so there’s _some_ tooling. then it just becomes whether the tooling is domain-specific or not. (I mean, I lean toward “not” but our customers lean “domain-specific”)
