So as someone who's never really followed the primary process before--this feels at first glance to me like more of a media circus than an actual screw-up? Like what is the actual, concrete harm that was done as a result of the problems with whatever system they were trying to implement? It seems to me like they attempted to implement a new system to make things easier and failed, but that there were appropriate backup measures in place such that things proceeded as normally but with a slight delay.

I suppose one could claim that the existence of the media circus itself is the harm that was done, but ideally I'm looking for other answers since being bad at optics is not especially high on my list of things to care about.

Oh woops. Putting Advokaiser in my sig like this until I think of something more clever
