As the other comment and a few others have iterated, software guys don't have as much of a "measure twice, cut once" mentality. It's not so much about the math or technical knowledge, it's more of a mentality.

Let me put it this way - I've seen many times software engineers laugh when they encounter a funny bug or an output they didn't expect. I don't think I've ever seen an ME laugh when something breaks.
