> One mistake doesn’t mean they are completely incompetent.

They are completely incompetent because for something as critical as crowdstrike code, you must build so many layers of validation that one, two or three mistakes don't matter because they will be caught before the code ends up in a customer system.

Looks like they have so little validation that one mistake (which is by itself totally normal) can end up bricking large parts of the economy without ever being caught. Which is neither normal nor competent.
