It's Clear from that that it's been a while since Bob Martin worked in the real world with real bosses, budgets and deadlines.

The problem is that the business tend to drive the "if it compiles, ship it culture" but also want to blame some lowly replaceable coder for any mistake so the organization and it's leaders can avoid any responsibility for any damage done due to their decisions to ship first and test later.

And Bob Martins post seams to cater perfectly for that sentiment, of never blaming the CIO/CXO for demanding the impossible, and overruling concerns but laying the blame entirely on the lowest and least powerful link in the chain.

People tend to forget that shipping despite warnings from a formal test suite, is baiting an audit failure in a way that overruling concerns voiced by actual people.
