I didn't think that the article was saying that software engineering is more difficult for Toyota than it is for other care makers, but rather that software engineering doesn't bring with it the 60 years of QA knowledge and process that mechanical engineering has in the Japanese auto industry, and that the lessons of those 50 years that make mechanical engineering so well refined are not readily transferred over to software engineering. Having said that, I didn't think that Toyota's problems were strictly software related.
