Is it really the distributed aspect? Or "just" working on a above average complicated project for many years?
The consequences of bugs in many distributed systems (and several other types of systems) are IME often harder to bear than e.g. UI or frontend workflow bugs. It's hard to have caused data loss. And at some point you probably will, even if you're quite careful.

Maybe I'm just projecting...
