It is amazing that computers work at all.
One of my favorite research papers along these lines is "When the CRC and TCP checksum disagree": https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/347059.347561
By looking at cases where the Ethernet CRC indicated no error, but the TCP checksum was invalid, the authors found a whole host of bugs in networking hardware, such as faulty DMA engines and buggy router memory.
Hardware data corruption is everywhere!
(There are no doubt newer studies, I'm just personally acquainted with one of the authors.)
