I get what you're saying but on the other hand isn't bit-flipping that results in typos or crashes something that is so beneath 2022? Like isn't this the kind of thing that Turing and Zuse had to deal with? And if it isn't, when is it a problem that we will finally and absolutely excise? Is it more of a 2030 thing? 2040?

With more and more miniaturization such stochastical behaviour becomes more and more prevalent. Same with higher and higher speed interconnects. Forward error correction is standard on e.g. NAND flash, VRAM for GPUs and being adopted by faster Ethernet standards. It's mostly just the consumer dram market that doesn't have robust error correction.
