I do small scale home renovations and dependencies used to be something only I kept track of in my head, painter can't start till tile's done, tile can't start till the plumber's finished, that kind of chain. If tile ran a few days late, nothing automatically told the painter's task to shift too, so I'd sometimes only catch it when the painter actually showed up to a job that wasn't ready. Set up a rule so when a task marked as a dependency gets pushed back, everything downstream automatically shifts its due date too instead of quietly staying wrong until someone notices in person.

Got the rule a little too aggressive at first, had it shifting dates on tasks that weren't actually blocked by the delayed one, just happened to be scheduled around the same time, so I had to go back and fix which tasks were genuinely dependent versus just coincidentally close together on the calendar.
