Never blindly trust sensors

And the relevance to Keil products is?

none directly, but we did have a discussion here a while ago about safety in which avionics got involved. I hoped this link will serve as an interesting reference, as software failures are clearly involved.

A moniker?

In our profession, it is customary to research all the detail before arriving at a conclusion.

Write code based on those false conclusions and ...

Of course, you know that ... Don't you?
