He doesn't know how it works, obviously. If SH4 does not sell well, there will be no SH5, guaranteed. Ubisoft will not look at the poor sales and draw the conclusion "We better make sure SH5 does is less buggy".
Putting together a bug-free computer game is not a slam dunk. Sometimes the game developement cycle uses all the time available and resources the budgeted, it has to go out the door. No company is going to keep it in development past the point where they can make money.
Making a computer game is similar to a sports team playing a game. They sometimes win, sometimes by a lot, but there are also times they just don't get it done.
