If I wrote a program with bugs in it and it returned unexpected and undesirable results, I couldn't reasonably say that the code breaks the spirit of my program. I simply wrote bad code and should fix it. I can no more expect a company of tens of thousands of individual to all perfectly adhere to some nebulous "spirit" than I can expect my computer to magically intuit my desires and do that rather than my actual mistaken request.
