> making these mistakes inside of companies also don’t care about getting better, just getting paid. I guess that's the problem, but at least for people who are competent today, they got there by failing and learning. > If you wanted every such type of mistake to be susceptible to crimimal or civil litigation No I don't, that's bad for all the reasons you said.

Some examples: * Engineers who write the code should also test/debug it * UX designers should regularly see new users trying their products I haven't thought too much of the case for CEOs but I imagine it's similar. At least in the startup world CEOs with a failed company under their belt are more valued than those with no experience.
