As we're still in the alpha stage, we're still developing tools to help us catch things like this, but we're not quite there yet. There's certainly more to come.
<br />
<br />
In the meantime, there are many errors that have been caught and corrected by users interacting with the system. Obviously we haven't caught them all, but we're working on it. :-)
