I've only seen the free versions, so I agree if you are charging it should be better quality.
Personally, I wish programming was treated as "proper engineering", in the same way as bridge building -- there are standards, and you get in serious trouble if you build a bridge, it falls down, and it was clearly your fault.
Of course, people should still be allowed to "build a bridge in their backyard", they just have to put clear warning signs on it, and if a company uses an "illegal bridge", it's their fault when it falls down.
We might still get there, we are still in the early days, similar to when there were no building standards and they fell down / burnt down regularly. After there were enough major disasters, people started demanding better.
