Shipping small improvements often

Small releases reduce the amount of uncertainty bundled into each deployment. When a change is narrow, it is easier to review, easier to test, and easier to roll back if something unexpected happens. Frequent shipping also changes how a team thinks. Instead of waiting for a perfect milestone, the team can look for the next useful improvement and get it in front of people quickly. This does not mean rushing careless work. It means keeping changes understandable, automating the boring checks, and building enough confidence that deployment becomes normal rather than dramatic.
