Hi, I work on this team at Cloudflare. We've been sending email for years via our free email routing product and email sending is built on top of the same infrastructure, code and knowledge.
I hope you've (your org) been able to curate something resembling higher level contacts with Microsoft. They seem to be the single largest email provider that consistently has deliverability issues.
I do think that the degree of coordination needed is reduced with increased frequency of deployment.
Mentally, I imagine an airport and there's a number of planes that need to be landed in a week. What requires more coordination: an airport that is open 24/7 and planes land when they arrive (continuous deployment) or an airport that is only open 1 hour a week?
Congestion drives the need for coordination. Or, put another way, when there is low or no congestion, sequencing through time is a sufficient form of coordination.

They don't care what the return is, they just want to offload dollars. If you don't care about the return, then something is not an investment - the quality of the borrower (based on their ability/history of repayment) is moot.
