This really devolves into "good teams can deploy daily, can raise a small PRs and have small number of rework". And this is like... thank you, but it is obvious. If team is able to do this things constantly it is probably a good team.

DORA says that if your team is able to do same pattern (as they show) it will be "elite/good" team. This really smell like a cargo cult. And managers are already using DORA metrics as good/bad teams metric.

This is clear Goodhart's Law case: ""When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure". So either DORA knowingly did nothing to protect against metric gaming or they didn't considered impact they will make. Neither of those is a good in my opinion.

So yeah I don't like DORA in it current iteration.

IIRC from the original report, the claim here is that even "gaming" these metrics leads to the desired result, as you can't game these metrics without actually improving your processes. I tend to agree.
