“According to NASA and Boeing in the Friday afternoon teleconference, the second software issue was caught just hours before it would have destroyed Starliner when it attempted to reenter the atmosphere.

“Of note, Boeing’s Mr. Chilton seemed to disagree that Starliner would have been destroyed had the second software error not been found.”

Testing is costly and time consuming, so, testing is the first thing to get cut.
