Wes, Here is a brief paper on statistical analysis by NIST, that clearly explains the differences between thorough testing and certification efforts up front vs. the allowance of errors to occur over time and the probability of the software remaining functional. In essence the thorough effort up front has much greater benefit and manageability, when performed correctly.
