It’s amazing to see the implications lay out first hand of a single manufacturing defect.
Big tech is in the kind of business where the 3rd, 4th, or 5th item in the chain of Toyota's "Five Whys" can have such far reaching effects. In a way, this is nothing new. The auto industry has been in that kind of business for a very long time now. This is why Toyota's "Five Whys" exists.
I don't think the root of the problem here is technical, however. I suspect it's ultimately cultural. Didn't Andrew Grove say, "Only the paranoid survive?" How hard would it be to maintain a culture of paranoia at an industry leading company with huge margins? That's the kind of position that fosters overconfidence, not paranoia.
