Unpopular opinion: I had a perfect baking week last month and it actually made me nervous

Last month I baked six batches of sourdough in five days for a local farmer's market in Asheville and every single loaf came out with an open crumb and blistered crust. No failed rise, no burnt bottoms, no gummy middles. It felt like I was in a groove but honestly it spooked me because I kept waiting for something to go wrong. Has anyone else had a streak so good it made you suspicious?

Read that perfection in baking is actually a bad sign sometimes.

One time I had three perfect baguette batches in a row and got paranoid too.
