Why database migrations beat click-ops for schema changes

Versioned SQL (or blueprint imports) turn scary deploys into reviewable diffs.

Clicking through phpMyAdmin in production is a rehearsal for outage theater. Migrations checked into git give you rollback stories, code review, and identical staging behavior.

The same idea applies to structure: blueprints can describe types, fields, and taxonomies so new environments do not drift from the one laptop where everything worked.
