Enterprise customers don't buy plausible code, they buy the promise of plausible code as sold by the hucksters in the sales department.

They're not buying code.

They are buying a service. As long as the service 'works' they do not care about the other stuff. But they will hold you liable when things go wrong.

The only caveat is highly regulated stuff, where they actually care very much.

I think SolarWinds would have preferred correct code back in 2020.
