How much commercial code is ever formally proven? Effectively none.
Don't forget, open source code is as often not formally proven as commercial code!

And it shows. Nowhere except for software do people accept products that are so full of bugs and errors. If one car in 50,000 displays a warning light when it shouldn't, the manufacturer recalls millions of them. Just in case. When it comes to software, people can buy the next version, with a new set of bugs.
