I wish that word would die. It is used far too often to imply that software made a mistake (presumably had a bug) when in fact the user misunderstood something or pushed the wrong button. Its overuse leads people to mistrust systems more than they probably should. It also allows people to excuse actual faults as if they are unavoidable realities of life, ultimately leading to increasingly relaxed standards and more future flaws. Similar examples are "thing", which you use to refer to something you don't know the name of or can't be bothered to name specifically (because you are mentally lazy or you haven't tried to learn and remember), and the new popular "fake news" -- the phrase you can use when you don't believe what was said, or you don't want to believe it even though you know it may be true, or perhaps you are unwilling to accept the information and want to suggest to your listener that they should also ignore the information. Glitsh, slippery slope indeed.
