A company might close tickets rapidly while offering solutions customers experience as inadequate, or it might take longer while ultimately restoring confidence through a more thorough process. What the data conceals is not the outcome itself but the customer's subjective sense of having been heard, a variable no ticketing system currently measures directly. Organizations that optimize exclusively for speed therefore risk mistaking administrative efficiency for genuine repair of the relationship.\" - Which statement does the passage actually support?",
