How is that different than e.g. Amazon? They too have a vested interest in moving fast, innovating, etc... That's really how aws came to be anyways.

AWS rewards bug fixing. More specifically, they reward making customers happy with existing products, which often includes bug fixing.

I would say aws even biased against rewrites and would prefer incremental improvements on the existing code base. Pretty polar opposite of google / fb.
