I didn't mean to belittle failure - for sure it has value. I just think there is more value in working through it - that is to say, you don't need to fail entirely to see the message. Without getting too esoteric or semantic, failing and failure are differences that sometimes we don't appreciate. Said another way: the earlier you recognize the problems the better, best if done before you "fail".
