Prod should always be highly “air gapped” with some sort of deployment process which tests not only the code to be deployed but also the deployment itself. I’ve been doing QA for a good while now, and everywhere I’ve worked has testers dedicated to testing the actual update process to make sure it will be safe when deployed.

And I won’t open the DB without making sure I’m read only. If I need to mutate data or schema, I’ll switch roles and have a dry run first.
