I'm glad you are an engineer and do not listen to your superiors.
He is told to design a part, the part needs to last, let's say 6000 hours and it needs to be built at say $45 dollars unit cost. Once the finished product hits the 6000 hour mark in testing they stop testing.
It doesn't matter to the manufacturer if it lasts another 6000 hours or if it lasts 1 more hour.
It has nothing to do with the quality of the engineer designing the part.
