However, you can still read a novel the same after someone else makes corrections or add things, even if the new things are not good.

Software can become complete broken by a bad patch.

That is seen the best at security issues. Like someone thinks it is a good idea to add a heartbeat extension to ssl. A basically pointless extension, if you have a novel with a pointless appendix from an editor, basically no one would read the appendix and it does not matter that it is there. But with software it ruins the entire server security completely

It is better to pass on 100 good patches than risking one bad patch
