1.)Why is Eric Ries wrong?
Because he uses the 5 whys of root cause analysis
When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
2.)Why is root cause wrong?
Because it is uses one of three logic frameworks.
3.)Why is one logic framework of deduction wrong?
In simple JAPANESE manufacturing environments,
deduction works.
In complex, chaotic environments need induction, abduction,
deduction and combinations of all three.
4.)Why are simple 'explanations' wrong?
Flawed safety process or entire 'safety culture' to blame?
Rise of the British empire or fall of the Roman empire?
5.)Why is the 'blame the process' wrong?
Mutual feedback loops between team, person, process and
technology. Technology includes software which is probabilistic.
Because it is 'the system of medical care'
6.)Why is the 'system of medical care' wrong?
Assumes you become healthy by taking pills. The more pills,
the better. The more root cause anomalies the better.
7.)Why is 'finding faults' wrong?

Because “We can't solve problems by using the same kind of
thinking we used when we created them.”

Tony's paradox on what happens when something has benn 'screwed':
replace quote of "When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like
a nail" with
When all you have is a screwdriver, everything looks like a screw,
but you can't tell if you are TIGHTENING the screws (on yourself) and
making the problem worse or loosening the screws.
PPS. start the flame war! rise and fall of the JAPAN manufacturing empire. SONY will eventually go bankrupt.
too many nitpicking fault finders and little creativity
in the big corp HQ in earthquake prone Tokyo. All the
factories clustered in Thailand (how convenient for Japanese
male execs to go!) which is flooded.
PS. How do I solve problems? I use the FIVE WHO.
I take the strangest assortment I can find. Throw them
together in a 'party' and then induce/abduce the answer.
Since 'birds of a feather' flock together, the 'corporate
dodo bird' is doomed to extinction (to mix metaphors).
