If they're aggressively ignorant and unwilling to learn good development techniques. That's unforgiveable.
People that make obvious mistakes due to lack of experience, but are willing to learn and grow from it, are going to be better developers. That's OK.

I mean, it's easy to point with the finger at that one colleague, that screwed up the function or committed that awful bug.
As I am most of the time in a leading role in the projects I do or have at least due to my seniority a bit of responsibility assigned, I always take the time to reflect and I try to see the whole picture. "Could I have done anything to avoid that?", "How could it pass the code reviews?", "Did I fail in teaching properly?"
No matter if you're in the job or in a match of Rocket League or in a raid in WoW or even out there in your car in a critical traffic situation... Finger pointing is easy, questioning yourself about YOUR role in that situation, is a hurting task and needs discipline and analysis.
Back to code mistakes... The survey asks "how forgiving WE are" -- well, this implies, that we are CLOSE ENOUGH to the situation to recognize it, so we are close enough to the product/project whatever. And therefore, we should also reflect our own role.
How forgiving are you to YOUR OWN mistakes? And do you even see them?
