reading packaging threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly
Something I keep coming back to: reading packaging threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly. Regional stock replaces an international lane with a domestic one.

Careful — the supplier does not control the last mile and most of your variance is in it.
the median is more useful than the fastest anybody ever got
