Defects in code do indeed come from sloppiness. Of course, real people are sloppy sometimes. So real systems need resilience in depth to help resist system effects from localized sloppiness.
The same set of arguments applies to security. The last few years of history teach us that nobody, not even state actors with deep pockets, can keep secrets forever. Don't we need to change our thinking about that, and make it so security breaches aren't uniformly disastrous? It's all about resilient SYSTEMS dealing with localized sloppiness.
