Explain this in more detail?

This is like saying that we know code is correct (bug free) because most of the lines sort of look correct. It's not /inherently/ an untrue statement, but it doesn't match up with any sort of real world experience.

To know that something is correct in a useful sense, you need it to not only have no obvious inconsistencies and errors, you also need a way to exclude non-obvious inconsistencies and errors. What's the plan?
