Definitely true for my domain, mechanical engineering. Enough reviews and bugs will be found and corrected.

  In most other fields, there are far fewer eyeballs, because far less work is opensource. If most/all CAD designs were opensource, you can imagine there would be projects underway to automatically "find all screws in the world that are too short to hold the design load". With enough projects of that nature, standards across the entire field will improve.

    Cars must necessarily follow the laws of physics. Software does not have such limitations, which creates hundreds times more ways to shoot yourself in a foot.

    Self-driving cars and IoT turned that joke into prophecy.
