I liked the way you showed the problem as ongoing in history. Indeed, the phrase "software crisis" is nice because it references the first point when the situation was articulated.

That said, I think the reason the situation is not going to change is clearly economic. That's not saying that bad software is cheaper. But there's a strong incentive to cheap, bad practices because cutting corners allows one person/organization to save money now with the (greater) costs being picked by the organization itself later, the organization's customers and society at large. Moreover, software isn't amendable to the standards of other sorts of engineering and so there's no way to have contracts or regulations demanding software of a certain standard or quality.

Edit: The only imaginable solution would be a technological revolution that allowed cheaper and better software with same technology also not allowing even cheaper and worse software.
