So I don't know Lean or Mathematics to any degree to really be able to say this with any level of confidence, but speaking from a pure software engineering backgrouand, how do we know that 13 MILLION lines of Lean code are bug-free? It seems to me that for a mathematical proof, bug-free would be an absolute requirement. Maybe the structure of Lean imposes that, I don't know, but that seems highly unlikely to me. That just feels like a LOT of code to be comletely error-free... What am I missing here?
