A component rename tore through 47 files and broke our docs for a month

I was in Denver on a Tuesday when I renamed Button to ActionButton to match the new API, and nobody ran the search-replace on the style guide, so our live docs still point to the old token while the codebase moved on, and now I check every alias against the actual export before merging, anyone else's design system versioning work like a game of telephone?

Same thing happens when landlords change the apartment number and tenants miss the memo.
