Random thought while reading: backflow could be a thing to check for.

Some dists don't have tests, and still have deps, causing a false-pass.

So the quality of a dist could be measured indirectly by the failure rate
of its depedents.

Or as an analogy, we have 2 sampling points in the river 100m apart.

If we sample at point 1, we can't sense the fecal matter because it enters
the river downstream of the sampling point.

But the fecal matter is sampled at point 2, so by conjecture, either point
2 created it, or it entered between points 1 and 2.

Sampling across the river at point 2 helps infer where the probable fecal
matter is.
