Thanks for saying this. I think we in software engineering tend to think too binary: either the product is perfect (100% bug-free) or it's shit. There's always room for improvement, but compared to other engineering, overall, I think we're doing pretty good. As an example similar to your wife's, my friend used to work for one of the major car manufacturers doing almost the exact same job as Edward Norton's character in Fight Club. The cars had "bugs", they knew about it, but they didn't publicly acknowledge it until they were forced to.
