Very intersting! I’m not so sure about the oathiness of:

I will make frequent, small, releases so that I do not impede the progress of others.

I will do all that I can to keep the productivity of myself, and others, as high as possible. I will do nothing that decreases that productivity.

But I think the real oath impact there is:

I will continuously ensure that others can cover for me, and that I can cover for them.

In Government work that, ^, is considered career ending.

I will improve upon this, thanks for the awareness.
