Totally agree! One of my favorite books on this subject is Accelerate, which makes a data-backed case for how shipping faster is the only thing that produces real stability.
Big lift and shifts are something like the opposite of quick, iterative ships. Research on many teams of many sizes shows this objectively results in worse software.
Data is chronically 10 years behind software dev, so although the book is 7 years old now, I think it's directly applicable to many data teams.
