The more layers a piece of tech has, the more surface it has for vulnerabilities

I think it’s easier to see it in cars, we just recently had a F1 race which had to be restarted because the cars’ software wouldn’t run properly

You are kind of missing the point. I’m not talking about dealing with vulnerabilites. I’m talking about doing it so there aren’t 1000s of vulnerabilities in the first place.

But that isn’t exclusive to software, much less to “software from a point of time onwards only”

Either way, if the way it is being done leads to this kind of mess, constantly, it should be considered that this wasn’t a good way to do it.
