This is where the argument that piracy is also preserving games stands up. Although, it begs the question why games developers do not properly archive their software.

Wait, she was fired like over 20 years later. How are those events even connected?

Yeah. I mean credit where credit is due, but saving a project once doesn't give you a lifetime get out of future screwups pass. It might give you leniency on the next few projects you worked on, but it's been years at this point.

It should probably also be mentioned that she was laid off, not fired.
