The principle you suggest is idealistic and has no grounding to reality. If the cost to fix something in production is close to none, and the consequences are close to none, the principle does not reflect reality.

The breaking bugs we shipped have went up about 40% year-to-year, but the engagement, user counts and revenue has grown much more than before because of the new features that got shipped. So overall its a big net win.
