Indeed: The industry optimizes for speed, time to market, and features, and applies the ostrich model to everything that doesn't bring short-time revenue (security considerations, accessibility, vendor lock-in, interoperability, …)

This has been going on for as long as the industry exists, and now we start to have the proper tools to assess the damage and understand the brittleness of it all.
