@amazeifystore: The Challenger failure began with a blind spot: cold. ❄️ At launch, the air was about 36°F. The O-ring rubber stiffened, the seal responded too slowly, and the joint opened a path for hot gas. Every test could pass, yet the system still failed outside its operating envelope. What safety margin are we assuming without testing?

The data point was not "outside the envelope". It was deliberately left out of the final dataset because it was inconvenient, an extreme outlier. Perhaps the best example ever of the potential consequences of 'cutting corners'.
