One of Amazon's core values is being data driven. If you want to change something, you colllect data about it first. It was one of employees large counterpoints to RTO at the org, the lack of data provided about its value.

This is the exec admitting they aren't following the Amazon process, but are making people do it anyway.

"Disagree and commit" is another one of their principles, i.e "we acknowledge that you disagree, but you need to commit anyway now that we made the decision." Better known as "Im the boss, so shut up."

This guy is just a bald face saying "we dont have the data to back this up so we shouldn't do it, but i said do it, so do it."
