I've worked with software that has to work. Our customers put it in a lab where they beat on it in simulation for 3 more, months - any bugs and they stuck with the old version. (which is one reason land lines were so reliable in the 1990s) We did a code freeze 6 months before release in hopes of catching everything.

Most software nobody cares if it works or even is possible for untrained humans to use, and it shows.

The glut of isolated B2C SaaS products/developers has absolutely destroyed any communal valuation of “known issues.” True in-house heads still remember.
