Why we publish scenario limits beside every exercise

Every exercise ships with a limits panel: assumptions about identity stores, cloud regions, and logging delays. Sponsors use it to brief auditors without overclaiming fidelity.

Analysts told us the panel reduced “but in real life” arguments during labs. When limits are visible, debates shift to adaptation tactics instead of gotcha complaints.

We refresh limits when vendors change defaults, not on a marketing calendar. That rhythm is slower but keeps the page honest.

If your organization needs a custom limit sheet, customer success can help translate your constraints into language the cohort sees on day one.
