True, especially for big packages like GNOME, KDE, Mozilla, Xorg, or 
LibreOffice.

Sometimes, I get trigger-happy. But I really shouldn't, well unless it's 
a hobby project on GitHub.

I've had "trivial updates" that broke things, both in and outside 
FreeBSD.

I've had code broken at my $DAYJOB, and that a Microsoft SaaS product 
(not a household name product like Windows or Word, but still). I was a 
major Tor contributor from 2017-2020 and had bad patches that broke 
things or add bugs get in, and that with Tor being very 
security-focused.

And hey, it's not like I'm pulling a University of Minnesota "research 
project" where the goal is to intentionally add bugs to the Linux 
kernel.
