> individuals can get sick, go on vacation, etc. having it be owned by a team creates resiliency from a people perspective.
Resilience against what? It isn't like teams make decisions quickly, an individual will get decisions done faster in almost every case, and if they are on leave right now its just slightly slower than a team.
For example, if you ask a team "can you get this feature in", likely they will come back at you a few weeks later. That isn't faster than an individual on leave, so I don't see what "resilience" even is here.
what if that one person quits suddenly because they're not getting paid enough, wants to move to a different country, etc?

feature not a bug etc. they should already have and know their priorities and if yours doesn't trump theirs, there's no reason you should get a concrete answer.
