Bold of you to assume people/companies test backups more than once.
Case in point: I once got instructed to “enable EBS snapshots” for customer deployments to meet a new backup requirement. Disaster recovery was a completely different feature we only kind of got to a couple years later and afaik, remains manual to this day.
it’s a good principal but I hear it a lot so it’s a thing I get annoyed about because it’s directed at me even though I have the receipts and proven record that it’s not a fact
