My favorite part is, if you do some extensive analytics from time to time (e.g. to prepare an upgrade to a new major version) and as a side effect stumble upon some workflows/pipelines/scripts constantly failing (and alerting the process owner) every five minutes for... at least a few months already.
Then you go and ask the process owner and they're just like "yeah, we were annoyed by the constant error notification mails, so we mad a filter that auto deletes them"...
I feel like half my job is trying to stop false positives and other noise from hitting important places. Because false positives kill any chance true positives will be noticed/reacted to/processed.
