It’s a good thing programmers aren’t susceptible to hubris in any way, or this would have been so much worse.

I’ve been told hubris, as well as laziness and impatience are the three great virtues of a programmer.

The essential virtue is integrity and it’s missing on that list. Without it, the original explanations would crumble.

I guess it’s either one of those off-by one errors - or it was a daft claim right from the start.
