Is it fair to say that also in your experience, those crucial edge cases/misses accumulate over time, making it even harder to ship things?

I've found this a lot in data systems where folks glue stuff together as fast as possible to "ship", while missing the huge glaring issues with the foundation that they've built on top of wet, sliding mud.

Yeah pretty fair to say. The company is in a domain where accuracy is very important and crucial because we deal with people’s money, but most products are also in a market where competition is high so moves must be made quickly.I have not been there for long but it seems in the beginning, the foundation laid because of fast shipping culture has caused all these problems.
