Marketing (or “product management” or whatever your org calls them) should be creating the requirement docs which the engineers implement. Sales should be learning and using every aspect of the product. Oh I forgot to mention tech docs/pubs, throw them in there too.
So yeah, this isn’t just “some engineer” and QA. A ton of people would have fucked up.
And what is going on 4 ports to the right? Seems like a similar problem.
The mini-USB console port? Yeah, that could be a similar issue, but I’ve never had to use that port while a device is in active production. If I can’t access the device via IP on our management fabric, the device is probably in a broken-enough state that I can probably unplug a cable or two to attach a laptop and troubleshoot.
And marketing, and sales. Tons of people would have pointed this out.
Some small committee of managers would have come up with some reason to dismiss all of these complaints.
Also there’s a very simple workaround for this that doesn’t require a full recall.

Maybe, but (unlike QA and management) I wouldn’t expect them to notice the problem or hold them responsible for failing to do so.
