Amazing how deep insights like Deming's are shallowed out by the consultant class. I engaged with any number of useless "6 sigma black belt" champions that couldn't explain what was deviation from the mean or why +/- 3 sigma was a good thing. Let alone how it applied to software development and defect detection and variation. The same applies today to all our "Agile" consultant friends who don't know what a scrum is or why the term is applicable, the "Scrum Masters" that run their daily "stand ups" without actually leading anything except that 15 minutes of the day, the "Product Owners" who have no idea what their "Product" is for or what the actual users need... What goes around comes around...
