oh man . . . you brought out the cat test 😂

So if I could rashly summarize what you're saying. A developer should build their software to handle all of the potential logical pathways. QA would also validate those logical pathways manually & hopefully automated as well. But then a QA should also test the illogical potentials or unpredictable interactions to make sure the logical gates function accordingly (aka the Cat on keyboard test).
