It’s more like the people who knew the internal system and understood that it would break with those changes were fired. So, whoever made that change probably thought changing a few values would be sufficient without proper research. I doubt it was documented, since it has never been done before or even expected to be done. And of course, they wanted to impress Elon by getting ‘shit’ done quickly!!
