    We affectionately called it “subscurity” on the FE team.

    When our BE apis would not give us any information why something failed, nor would they give us access to their logs. Complete black box of undocumented doodoo, and they would proudly say “security through obscurity” every time we asked why they couldn’t make improvements to usability.
