I think you hit the nail on the head.

I can't tell you how many different things I've seen that are /just/ 
good enough that they work (most of the time) when everything they 
depend on is working properly.  If a gnat farts in the room, things fall 
over.  Then someone has to pick the pieces up.

I really wish that this was not the case.  But this is what I've come to 
expect.  That way I'm pleasantly surprised when something is as you are 
describing it should be.
