I like this point of view. I get why people are saying things like "normalize mistakes" etc, living in some kind of police state environment that punishes every misstep is just miserable. Especially if you're working in software, where "no mistakes" is not a reasonable standard. OTOH it shouldn't become an excuse for complacency, and especially not an excuse to tolerate incompetence and/or totally unforced errors.
