Well that's always what I assumed happened.

Like I said before, for a mass produced items like the helmet there would be design files out of Kayaba's control and the rescuers would have access to them. Hence the only plausible booby traps would be in software assuming Kayaba did not submit any of the source codes to outsiders. Since usually large software projects have source management repositories (SVN and what not).
And when it comes to testing unless you know to test for something you don't really test for them. Especially when the dude changed things after the beta.
