It was reported that the other fellow that died a few days ago also knew of this bug before he was killed. I wonder if he too died while trying to reproduce this bug, and if so, could you really hold Tesla at fault?

You know there is a deadly flaw in a product, (Imagine a car without Anti lock brakes.) But you continue to try to reproduce a deadly bug in the software. Is the maker of the car at fault?

Could absolutely be true.

The problem I see in this software issue is that the Production environment isn't fully-reproducible for testing/debugging.

We're debugging on live code on; with the ability to completely ruin lives with the wrong logic.

In comparison; Anti-lock brakes tests can be done on an abandoned airstrip.
