Stress-testing (posted after the fact as I still haven't got the 'net here)
The first thing I noticed when I walked in the door and turned on the lights was the rose in its little pot. "Hey, didn't I leave that somewhere else?" my tired mind fuzzily observed.
Next, I noticed that the light from the kitchen was illuminating too much of the living room. "What gives?" I asked myself.
Then, I noticed the kitchen cabinets. Instead of cheerfully ensconced on the ceiling between the kitchen and the living room areas of this reasonably-sized studio apartment, they were on the kitchen floor amidst the scattered and spilled remains of their former contents.
I shall be notifying the office in the morning that implementation is observing a few bugs.

Did anything of import actually break, or is it "merely" a problem of reattaching the cabinetry and putting everything away again?
(I have lots of glass and stoneware in my ceiling cabinets. If my kitchen hardware architecture incorporated that particular bug, it'd trigger an irreversible self-sustaining series of cascading destructive hardware failures which would most likely result in complete loss of all "cooking" and "eating" toolbox functions, repairable only by replacement of all hardware in the failed boxes.)

The cabinets broke. There is a gouge out of the kitchen flooring that will need a replacement of the flooring. ETA of new cabinets: 2 weeks. Unknown time of arrival on floor-repair.
The contents of those cabinets were food items only. Cookware was elsewhere, and eating-ware was also elsewhere.
One stoneware mug broke. One. It had been sitting on the counter. Mama made it, and gave it to us because the glaze had run until she considered it unsellable. Lovely mug, no emotional attachment. (Were she dead, that would be a different story, but she's alive and the piece was flawed.)
The flour and baking soda boxes failed catastrophically, so the kitchen wound up with more powder than a Baroque whore, but that's not too bad an outcome considering what could have happened.

I'm taking it ALL fairly well. And you're not seeing the bits where I spend two hours crying hysterically on the phone to Darkside.
Oh, and my internet at home doesn't hook up until tomorrow.
