I wish you could flesh that out a little and forward it on to the folks ensuring the software we write at work is "high quality." I keep telling them that metrics and unit tests don't make a quality system, a good design and bug fixing does.
But applications with good design always have good metrics and unit tests ... The technical debt can't say that an application has a good design but it can say that it has a poor one.
