Im okay with sending data to the server if things break and be asked each time to okay it. Is it safe to assume that if no errors or exceptions are encountered

Im okay with sending data to the server if things break and be asked each time to okay it. Is it safe to assume that if no errors or exceptions are encountered nothing should be sent back home?

How can they monitor failure rate if they only track failures though?

  Why does it have to be a rate? Failures counts and failure types are good enough to extrapolate whatever else you need

    They really aren't. If a package is downloaded 100k times and fails 1k times it's a very different issue than if it's downloaded 1k times and fails 1k times.

      IMO installation failures are equally bad, no matter if they happen in 1% of cases or in 100%.

        Well, you're wrong. If you have 10,000 packages and 1,000 of them are failing it's clearly useful to be able to prioritize which to fix first.
