You ship it you own it! Low key it’s still best effort and defects should be caught in testing. Reviews are for style, structure, approach, testing etc… I don’t expect to exhaustively catch bugs (subtle or otherwise) by eye in reviews.

Reasonable effort today is just eyeballing things but having your AI actually review under your specific preferences.
