Interesting idea. Here's my anecdote [or in other words, we should be dubious that there is any meaning here at all beyond coincidence].
Most of the work that I've done was for medical technology where the customer tends to deploy more often in Europe. I have seen very few finished products where I had a hand in implementing something.
However, one of my happiest experiences was years ago when we finished a rewrite of some hardware for a customer that had to be done because they didn't want to interrupt their sales pipeline (also their customers wanted to be able to continue buying with out their purchasing pipeline being interrupted either).
Anyway, so things had to move fast and once we were done soon after (months later iirc) there was a website up that had the new product that we had worked on.
It felt really good (even years later now thinking back) to be able to actually see and be able to show people I knew the product that we worked over a year on.
