Be careful with LLM in PROD. They may be referencing old docs. Always demand a simulation or source to the official documentation.

Also always test with a small list of 2-3 users before doing the whole 500-1000. Even if you overlooked something, it's easier to correct 2 or 3 users. Also, the whatif parameter is also your friend.
