The way I read the article was that it fails immediately, it just fails in a different way after two seconds.

Perhaps catching the instantly reproducible failure before release would have lead them to the root cause of both.

The images in the 'Digging deeper' section suggest otherwise. They appear to show a successful run followed by one that fails because the 'encrypted' value is garbage. Where am I missing the instantly reproducible failure?
