Makes me wonder how much software issues are just due to rapidly changing development and software environments in general? It's not like physical reality gets a patch every year that introduces new bugs in working machines or makes some old types of mechanisms non-functional.

Definitely part of it I think, the environment itself changes quite a bit.
