You're ignoring cost. Want to build software like we (were supposed to) build 737s -- to always work? Watch your costs go up by (rough guess) 10-100x. We've generally made a decisive choice for functionality and cost over bugs. Which isn't to say that I don't agree that there are areas: self-driving cars, airplanes (required here), human diagnostic software (already required here), etc that should have much tougher standards. But across the board ... I don't think people are willing to pay for that.
