You can reduce failure rates with high quality production and
maintenance, but you can't eliminate them. A single failure doesn't
tell you much about the quality of the underlying system.


No , but constant failures all the time does.


I wasn't aware that the new signalling on the network had been
suffering from constant failures.


The JLE was doing quite a nice job of regular fsck ups until recently.
