I think it's more likely just typical dysfunctional software industry workflows. Companies that actually test their software adequately before deployment are the exception, not the norm. That's different from what you said in your second bullet point because it's not even an issue of cheapness, it's an issue of not actually understanding what the best practices need to be.
I mean... those "typical dysfunctions" are what OP described. You're just describing the general state of the industry, not providing further examples of disfunction.
No, the parent commenter attributed it to management not wanting to spend money. I'm attributing it to management being incompetent instead, which isn't the same thing. Spending even unlimited amounts of money is not sufficient to fix what's wrong.
¿Porque no los dos?
