Idk a tiny almost imperceptible scratch causing you to retry installing 3 or 4 times might a winner. At least missing disk is a clear error.
Nothing sucked more than buying a used game only for it to asked for disc 5 to be inserted to continue, when it only came with 4!

There’s a circle in hell for game publishers that only wrote “disc 1” on a CD or DVD (or floppy, back in the day) and not “disc 1 of 3”. I think it’s the one where they have to wade forever in shit.

Oh, true, but back then game companies would sell you those single disks you needed. My copy of Baldur’s Gate 2 was missing one that I was able to replace for a few bucks.
In hindsight, I kinda miss the awesome customer service that used to exist.
