So... Third major data loss update in the last 6 months?

I mean, it's a Developer Preview.
If someone is installing these without expecting things to go wrong sometimes that's entirely on them.

A Developer Preview should allow Developers to Preview it, not brick the device.

This should have been caught internally before release.

The last one was on a QPR beta, and the one before that was on the A14 stable launch version.

This case is definitely more understandable but after 2 worse ones it's still a bad look.

you are doing this to yourself. Knowing Google's rich software history and all.
