But the more I live, the less I keep believing in the Hanlon's razor ("Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity"). It is ENTIRELY plausible that these "child mistakes" might be deliberately left in their code to facilitate some automated shadow fund distribution by request in the form of invalid transactions...
Am I a conspiracy theorist or are they really THAT stupid?
Does it make a difference what the intention was? Adapt and move on?
The intention does make a difference. Honest people must not suffer for this.
Besides, I don't know the full scale of the problem yet to make any bold statements. What I'm saying right now is merely this: clueless devs are not to work in any critical areas (aerospace, military, medicine, financial, *including* crypto), or else we're about to have Therac-25 all over again, but much more globally.
