alt Hacker Newsall fun and games until you need to debug the rats nest that you've been continually building. I am actually shocked people who have coded before have been one-shotted into believing this

Agree! Don't let it get too bad. See my other comment on debugging and refactoring being a core part of your workflow.
If a bug rears its head it can be dealt with. Again, this is essentially already practiced by humans through breeding programs. Bugs have come up, such as deleterious traits, and we have either engineered solutions to get around them or worked to purge the alleles behind the traits from populations under study. Nothing is ever bug free. The question is if the bugs are show stoppers or not. And random walk iteration can produce more solutions that might get around those bugs.
