You just don't need that in software when most of the industry is low consequence. It's only losing money at most tech companies, not killing your coworkers. This hasn't happened to me personally, but it's not cool when Rob the test pilot, whose family you've hung out with and that you've gone on hikes with, literally dies next day in a fiery crash. But that's the risk any test pilot accepts.

That's the excuse I keep heading. Then, I find out that the "low consequence" software I've worked on is being relied upon in very consequential contexts.

Can I tell your customers that the software you're selling them is only built for "low consequence" applications?
