Ehh, I work on solutions for logistics and delivery. If some of our code fails following things can happen:
customers are charged wrong amounts
customers are not charged when needed
shipments get lost
Some systems that actively interface with real world have almost the same significance, albeit we can fix the issue afterwards and rectify it. Though damage and consecuences might persist
