>>> I make an app that does X, but every time you start it, it crashes.

Buggy code is a huge drag on any codebase and any business built on that codebase - absolutely.

But if you list all the things you think you MUST fix in a codebase, they are all things that make you as a developers life harder.

The bugs that a user sees are the ones that take away the value they get - the ones you see are the ones that make it harder as a developer to work on the code base - they are rarely the same bugs

this is the cause of most tension
