Even the major rollouts are done by model , model year and region so they can be paused if there’s a lot of issues.

No software is bug free unfortunately, there’s always a calculated risk involved in any update
I have installed software updates on many vehicles, none of which are as buggy as this . . . . not even close. I have also developed non-automotive software and would expect to have been fired had I released this level of bugs. Please also note the reference to dealer-related commentaries in this thread.
