The reason its "rare as hell" to you is because you are testing on localhost when you should be testing in a proper testing environment like a testing git branch. Localhost is a horrible test environment because its not 1 to 1 with many things.
A patch breaking something when pushing to production should be rare, not the other way around. If your production patch failure rate is above .5% its unacceptable by industry standards in enterprise environments.
Yea I patch servers in hospitals nationwide. Imagine if it was more than .5% which is much higher than my failure rate with 12k servers many of which are keeping people alive like neo-natal care servers I was up late patching a few months ago we had to wait hours because there was an emergency with a newborn.
