All kinds of things can be called "quality": speed to market, meets specifications, bug-free, doesn't crash, does things fast, has a good/intuitive/powerful user interface, the list is potentially endless. What's more, the "software quality" people acknowledge this: they never ever define "quality", except maybe by saying "it's personal".
Supose my definition of quality is "first to market, and has a user interface that anybody can understand". Does this particular (personal) definition of quality mean that my software has started towards Software Security? No, we have a historical example or two in Microsoft Windows 95 and 98, and maybe in the first few versions of IIS and NT.
"Quality" is a meaningless buzzword with respect to software. Don't be a proffesional meeting-attender, use better defined words when building an argument.
