I don't think the definition of "bad" is expanding. Rather the ability to detect and exploit "bad" is.

fair point. another way of putting it might be to say that, for all extant software, much more of it is "bad" than we realized even a month or two ago -- and the cost to create and maintain "good" software is increasing (even as the naive / surface-level / apparent cost is plummeting)
