Will,

 

I agree that the consequences of failure drive the intensity of the efforts
to ensure reliability. I was objecting to the philosophy that Dave's comment
seemed to be promoting and was merely using my work experience as an extreme
counter-example. 

 

His statement, "Remember, you are not responsible for making the system
perform, you are only responsible for reporting its failures to meet
delivery guarantees." implies that it is acceptable to deliver to a customer
a product known to be faulty as long as it tells the customer why it failed.
Thankfully, any company with that philosophy is probably not going to
survive very long in the marketplace.  Definitely Flex does NOT fall into
that category.

 

This discussion has gone WAY off topic & therefore this will be my last
comment on it.
