In my 12 factor application part of the boot process is ensuring that the configuration providers (env, Consul, etcd, etc) have provided the baseline configuration for the app and panic if the configuration is unavailable. Previously the fetch() method only provided the sanity check token as an environment, but this caused upgrade failures for applications requiring env configuration at runtime.
