This is an example of not caring about the software per se, but only about the outcome.

Yes, but as a user I like that. I have a game that from the user-experience seams to have tons of use-after-free bugs. You see that as a user, as strings shown in the UI suddenly turn to garbage and then change very fast. Even with such fatal bugs, the program continues to work, which I like as a user, since I just want to play the game, I don't care if the program is correct. When I want to get rid of these garbage text, I simply close the in-game window and reopen it and everything is fine.

On the other side there are games written in Pascal or Java, which might not have that much bugs, but every single null pointer exception is fatal. This led to me not playing the games anymore, because being good and then having the program crash is so frustrating. I rather have it running a bit longer with silent corruption.
