I think it matters everywhere -- just because some fields get away with making trash doesn't mean that they're not vulnerable to people taking their lunch by making something distinctly-not-trash. People put up with a lot when there's lock-in, but there's a breaking point. (I say now using a linux desktop about 90% of the time now because windows has become such a fucking disaster)
Being vulnerable makes money unfortunately. And making money now has always been seen as more important than being sustainable in the long-term. Even if an exploit later takes away every cent of earnings.
I see this sentiment occasionally brought up, and at the same time see what’s happening to Github where the majority of their distributions is not security or efficiency related (not saying it’s because of LLMs, we don’t know). The point is, these things matter beyond beautiful code. You loose trust and you lose customers and money.
