While there is no guarantee that you will find the problem on the maiden flight, there is a guarantee that putting the programmers on that flight will compel them to find it.
True, but most people will prefer to look bad than die. Further, its teams of people, not just a single person responsible for the code. They ALL go on the maiden flight.
