"Of course, assuming that the root cause is traced to the software, what of

Certainly not, on the other hand, it will be interesting to know more details.
You can certainly ask whether a language could have helped when you now
consider the exact cause of the problem narrowed down to source code.
For instance, I think the Fortran language design bears at least a piece
of responsibility for the Venus probe bug.
