Could you reword or expand on this last one? I'd expect
dependencies/inputs/upstream changes to affect the build.

Yes - I'm referring to situations where dependencies/inputs/upstreams are brought in to a build without any control on versioning/provenance - for example when a build system expects to bring in dependencies from the internet, which may have changed or even disappeared since the last time.

So maybe better wording would be:

- builds are affected/modified by uncontrolled dependencies/inputs/upstream changes

Does that make sense?
