What is unique about software is that quality declines directly proportional to attempts to manufacture industrial output. That means segments with more manual attention and less restrictions on participation tend to have higher quality than those segments taking the opposite approach. What’s most unique about that is trend towards lower quality following attempts at industrialization do not appear to result in faster output and may actually cost more to deliver. Attempts to understand why that is allowed to occur is a business and sociology problem, not a software problem.
Take GPS for example, it only gives you an approximation of where you are, not the exact location. And this example can be extrapolated to basically almost any new tech.
