Circumstantial at best. The only reason patch 4 wasn’t released concurrently to the panel (as by their own admission it was supposed to) is that they noticed some annoying last minute bug and delayed it.

Not really. Then again it's not like they ever told us anything about how the production is going, so there's that.
Do they need to? Larian communication issues aside, software bugs tend to be frustrating, annoying and difficult to pin down 99% of the time - but probably only interesting to the game's programmers.
