I think the diffrence is Large Corperation vs. small developer.
The large corperation can afford to take a few damages, but
the small developer cannot.
If I'm buying a car from an individual, I expect that the guy
won't help me fix it should something go wrong. Maybe if
he's a nice guy he'll tell me if he knows something is wrong with
the car, and he'll fix it if it acts up, but thats the extent of it.
OTOH, if I buy from a dealership, I expect some sort of
warrenty.

Theory is when you know how it works, but fails. Practice is when something
works, but you don't know why. Here, Theory and Practice come together.
Nothing works, and nobody knows why.
