ALL of the fixes were for non-critical bugs.
The fact that Valve does continue to fix problems on all of their games is a positive thing.It is positive in light of the fact that Valve continually creates so many bugs and doesn't adequately catch or fix them before deploying its patches.
It's a fact of all software development.No, it's a fact of undisciplined software development not all.
