Someone once coined a related term, "disassembler rage". It's the idea that every mistake looks amateur when examined closely enough. Comes from people sitting in a disassembler and raging the high level programmers who had the gall to e.g. use conditionals instead of a switch statement inside a function call a hundred frames deep.

We're looking solely at the few things they got wrong, and not the thousands of correct lines around them.
