Crashes are a lot worse for business if you're an avionics company than if you're a social bookmarking company.

I second that. If you have something like a display bug or some strange inconsistency in a website, having that bug there is actually a chance for you to show how responsive you can be to user bug requests. That is, having and quickly fixing a bug could turn out to be a good thing. That is not the case if you are NASA or your local nuclear power plant.
