Why Clean Code Causes Industrial Disasters
Can code be easier to read and still make an industrial process less safe? This episode examines why software refactoring in OT must preserve more than functional output: scan-cycle timing, interlocks, failure behaviour, operator expectations and the evidence behind a validated control baseline. We discuss how engineering teams can review changes, test them against the physical process and control deployment without treating cleaner code as proof of safer operation.
