If you have a building that weathers many storms and only collapses after someone takes a sledgehammer to load bearing wall, is that a failure to build a proper building?

Was the building still under construction?

I think your analogy is not a good one to stretch to fit this situation

If someone takes a sledgehammer to a load bearing wall, does it matter if the building is under construction? The problem is still not construction quality.

The point I was trying to make is that someone destroying a well executed implementation is fundamentally different from a poorly executed implementation.
