Reminds me of this: https://mathoverflow.net/questions/513742/are-we-stuck-with-...

I know this is an implementation bug not a meta-theory bug, but I'd almost consider the fact soundness bugs are possible as a bug in the ideology, or at least a severe drawback. Stuff like this just wouldn't happen in Metamath. In a future where AI is autogenerating formalizations, why not have the AI use a harder but airtight system like Metamath?

Took me about 90 seconds to find a Metamath implementation bug that apparently allowed proving something that shouldn't be provable: https://github.com/metamath/metamath-exe/issues/184
