Having worked in QC, my guess is that QC were probably aware of risk, communicated this to management, but management and/or engineering refused to invest the time and/or resources to prevent the defect.
My experience in QC was excruciatingly frustrating and is the reason I left that job.

Even If the only thing missing was the worker, the fact that the line still ran speaks volumes.
Where’s QC?
