But it matters for detection time, because there's a lot more "normal" use of any given piece of code than intentional attempts to break it. If a bug can't be triggered unintentionally it'll never get detected through normal use, which can lead to it staying hidden for longer.

That's not really contested? The statement was that longer detection time indicates lower severity.
