Shouldn't, but nearly allways will. A majority of software (in particular Information Systems) allways fail. Software Engineers tend not to learn from past errors.

Agreed.

You may be the richest person in the world.
You can hire the best coders money can buy.
You can have hundreds of people working on your code.
You can have a software which used by the entire world.
You can have a years of experience in this software.
But your miracle software does still fails even in your introduction to press conference. You will get that dreaded BLUE screen while your OS is booted and it is in live TV all around the would. :lick:

Sophisticed software had bugs, do have bugs and will have bugs, no matter what you do as there is no such thing as "PERFECT software".

A decent coder is the one who manages to avoid important, security related, major bugs and works hard to fix the rest.
