Traffic splits and metric gates are recorded; a deliberately poor candidate triggers automatic rollback before full exposure. This is evidence for a different corrective change: Use canary deployment with a small measured traffic allocation and defined rollback thresholds before wider rollout. That other change addresses: A retailer replaces a proven recommendation model across all traffic instantly, then discovers a large conversion regression with no staged comparison. It does not validate the specific Osprey Enterprise Software remediation for: A scientific PyTorch model uses custom inference libraries unavailable in prebuilt serving images and fails on import.
