Right! It's well known that technical people never make mistakes.

I think the expectation is more that serious people have their work checked over by other serious people to catch the obvious mistakes.

  • Every time you have your work "checked over by other serious people", it eliminates 90% of the mistakes. So you have it checked over twice so that 99% of mistakes have been eliminated, and so on. But it never gets to 0% mistakes. That's my experience anyway.
