yeah, in practice: would you like to onboard a Boeing 747 where some of the bugs were patched by some agents,

what is the percentage risk of malfunction you are going to accept as a passenger?

No. But most software products are nowhere near that sensitive and very few of them are developed with the level of caution and rigor appropriate for a safety-critical component.

In this case, the traditional human process hasn't gone well either.

It is working great as long as it is adhered to and budgeted.
human process is the understanding that the mistakes will make people die
The bugs were mostly caused by MBAs, who one assumes will remain.
