I have seen this play out so many times over the years, “if we fix this bug, our revenue will go down X%” and no one will fix it. Ever. Any redesigns or redacts

I have seen this play out so many times over the years, “if we fix this bug, our revenue will go down X%” and no one will fix it. Ever. Any redesigns or redacts that fix this bug will probably fail A/B testing unless they account for this bug. It holds back the entire company from making real progress with the product, all for a few extra bucks.

It's funny it's like intentionally putting a feature that did this would make you guilty, but if it's just a bug then nobody can blame you for not fixing it. Most software licenses say the software is sold "as is", so if there are bugs you can't complain.

  It is not like having a monopoly on finding customers combined with not finding customers is going to have any economic effect. It is also entirely fine if IT is leading the US economy where IT is a bunch of guys playing ping pong. Companies can just dig a little deeper into their pockets, customers can pay a bit more for products. Specially nowadays everyone has plenty of money and the economy is solid as a rock. It is the responsible thing to do.
