Which code is not meant to be correct?

This is a silly strawman. All code is meant to be correct, but often times close enough to correct is good enough (as is literally the whole point of my post). Most businesses operate on code that is close enough to correct for their individual risk tolerance, and increasing that correctness would reduce speed/throughput and increase cost.
