There are systematic ways you can approach it, and that's essentially, uh, what we try to do with our classification.
8:15
So first, when we even started, we, we wouldn't ensure that there is that classification, right? Uh, you know, you would assume without sort of data to support it that maybe these are all really unique and you have to play whack-a-mole, and that's the only approach.
8:30
Then what we did is we took ten thousand odd, uh, grounded failures which are observed in enterprises, and we started analyzing if there's a pattern, and we were able to identify a hundred and fifty-seven categories, unique types of failures.
8:45
And I don't want to draw parallel to the hundred and sixty-one categories of death in the first version in the ICD, but it's fascinating that we sort of were able to categorize it into this.
8:59
Now, once we've done that, it enables, just like in the medical world, right? Like I said, the, the ICD helped doctors to become more efficient and so on.
9:08
Uh, it didn't cure a disease, but it created a diagnostic foundation for systematic medicine and public health.
