VW engineer sent to the clink for three years for emissions-busting code

What if the software has a table of calibration values with a comment

// NB: Until the wheels have moved, there is nothing to use to index into the

// table, zero-th entry is default value that assumes car has moved 100m

// This will give spurious results until car has actually travelled 100m

(Like my old Polo did. Hmm a VW Polo). And Management demands 'get rid of that intial 100m thing'. Is that then illegal?
