I mean, a build failure is hard to miss. As soon as it fails to build you know that it failed to build. You can't be happy as if your package has been built successfully when it actually failed. If you are happy that your package failed to build, then either there is a problem with you or a problem with the rest of us. In either case the outcome is the same: The package *failed* to build. Please come up with an example where there are no warnings in the build logs and the package builds and installs fine, but it is broken.
