This seems like an overly dramatized comment. The issue would have been easy to avoid but on the other hand it's easy to work around so I would call it a minor issue and i can see how it was missed during testing. What other issues have you encountered?
- hmry 7y agoNot OP, but the RasPi 2 resetting when exposed to bright light because they used a chip scale part in the power supply comes to mind. In my opinion, the fact that the SOC is so sparsely documented (and in the Pi 4's case, almost entirely undocumented) is a way bigger deal than the occasional small power supply design issue though.
- tssva 7y agoYour comment makes it seem like any bright light will reset a RPi2 which is not accurate. The RPi2 will only reset when exposed to specific high intensity long wave length light. Really it is only triggered by xenon camera flashes at close proximity and laser pointers targeted on the RPi2.

While some problems should have been found already during testing the comment still is indeed overly dramatized.
