Based on what sort of failure rate? Where is your threshold?
If 1 in 10 fails, then yes I'd probably agree with you. If 1 in 10,000 fails, then what?
I think the underlying issue here is your interpretation of how frequently these things happen vs. mine.
The world is full of examples of people being told to follow a certain set of instructions or a complex process when the underlying process isn't infallible. It's rare to see caveats placed around it to the extent that you believe should be.
