What the vendor says is best practices, or what people in the trenches say?

If option A is 2% more "efficient" than option B, but takes 10% longer to
deploy and causes 3% more SLA payouts to your customers when the added
complexity causes a whoopsie, how much more work could you have gotten done in
the time you spent in an uncomfortable meeting explaining to upper management
why the whoopsie happened?

(Sorry, it's been that sort of week :)
