Exactly! software is the only engineering discipline where failure has no liability and degradation has no visibility.
Bridges collapse once. Software collapses silently, one abstraction at a time. The incentives are inverted: short-term growth gets rewarded, long-term stability gets deprecated.
When there’s no physical consequence for failure, “good enough” becomes the design philosophy.
