Because what confuses me is that it sounds like a person is supposed to do anything they can to find out if something is wrong, then if something is wrong then it calls the entire body of work into question.
That's pretty much how it works in the real world too. If you invent a new product, you try as hard as you can to break it. Otherwise, you can be pretty sure that one of your customers will figure out how to break it and then you will look bad.

Life is like a Hot Wheels car. Sometimes it goes behind the couch and you can't find it.
