It’s generally a happier way to live and view the world.
A reality in which many companies might regularly get away with malice by just claiming incompetence? As if that should even have any influence on their (legal) responsibilities in the first place(?)
Assuming malice does happen, and I certainly think it does, at which point would you consider this approach willful ignorance? Would it not make one actually part of the problem, instead of just an observer?
More to the point, when is personal happiness more important than discovering the truth? Is the latter not a personal responsibility to anyone, given a capacity?
Assumption is what we go on when we have no proof - so, until you have proof, assume incompetence.
Making this initial assumption (effectively giving the benefit of the doubt) does not mean you should stop looking for proof/under lying reasons.
What it does is reduce the dopamine hit you get from being angered/outraged and let’s you think with a clearer head moving forward in your thinking/investigating.
I at no point said “assume incompetence and then stick your head in the sand and pretend all is fine” that’s has its own saying “ignorance is bliss”
No, closing your eyes and chewing through the legbone bitd of your colleague in your sausage is not the move.
For instance, and this is really one of many — Facebook took phone numbers from users for 2FA, promising it’d only be used for security and... used those numbers for ads[1].

Additionally, it's a beta version of iOS, so we're supposed to be expecting bugs anyway.
