Thanks, lin0!

I'm mostly concerned with the business costs associated with defects that would not have happened, schedules that would not have slipped, and late hours that would not have happened to make up for the loss. Standard HR metrics for "hiring replacement costs" exist, but they do not tell a fraction of the whole story, espeically in terms of senior software and firmware developers. The developer.* story was very insightful, and in words, it said what needs to be said. I've added it to my list, but some more numbers would be helpful.
