I always wonder how hardware bugs like this happen with the sheer amount of hardware validation that's done. It'd be fascinating to know how it slipped through the cracks, though I know almost nothing about this side of the industry sadly
That "sheer amount of hardware validation" is always less-than-perfectly spread across a whole lotta billions of transistors, and combinatorics is a harsh mistress.
