Bluntly: they expended that credit a while ago. Those that can will move on. Those that can't have a real problem.

As for your last sentence:

Businesses really do care about the incident reports because they give good insight into whether they can trust the company going forward. Full transparency and a clear path to non-repetition due to process or software changes are called for. You be the judge of whether or not you think that standard has been met.

I might be looking at it differently, but aren't decisions over a certain provider of service being made by the management. Incident reports don't ever reach there in my experience.

		In my experience, the gist of it does reach management when its an existing vendor. Especially if management is tech literate Becuase management wants to know why the graphs all went to zero, and the engineers have nothing else to do but relay the incident report. This builds a perception for management of the vendor, and if the perception is that the vendor doesnt tell them shit or doesnt even seem to know theres an outage, then management can decide to shift vendors
