That's not really economic at present, hopefully it will be one day. There are a very small number of verified programs, no mainstream operating systems and no major application suites. We just don't have the technology for it yet.
It does not seem very practical to throw out all digital evidence (eg photos and videos) because there is some chance of misprocessing. Who even records in analog today? What corresponding standard would you demand for analog evidence? Even in analog there were film issues, processing issues, noise, smudges, tampering and uncertainty, people have been dealing with these sorts of confounders for a long time.
We don't generally require "mathematical certainty" for other types of evidence. Personally I think GP was proposing a reasonably balanced commonsense perspective.
