Joy & Curiosity #97 makes the case that access to debugging agents that find and fix defects at scale changes the economics of quality gates, so teams should recalibrate defect tolerance upward and go faster on the reasoning that bugs get caught quickly rather than prevented. A direct inversion of the zero-defect deploy posture, from someone who has spent the year inside Claude Code internals. I think he's right for internal tools and wrong for anything with a payment or a patient in it, and the interesting work is figuring out where the line sits.
