    So by this definition testers are annoying due to being super pedantic and precise.

    Disagree, I think programmers are annoying in exactly the same way.

      I think it’s more about how testers always run into all the edge cases programmers don’t think about

        Can confirm, not even an official tester (just an open beta tester) and have acrued a reputation for having a legendary bug aura that can cause catastrophic and previously unseen edge cases to occur just by opening the software (game)

      I mean, no, the tester didn’t say anything wrong here, and all of those (and more) are conditions one must take into account if one were to write a piece of software without errors
