I beg to differ, the unit tests, the integration tests, and system tests (automated and manual) are responsible to check whether or not the production systems are broken.
Visually inspecting the code for bugs i would argue is not the best solution for that.
In addition, some companies use static inspection tools such as code sonar.

That said, of course inspecting the code doesn't hurt, but I think the main reason is to check whether code meets the code standards, architectural standards, design patterns etc.

In some companies, the informal standards are usually solved with a standardized formatter rules.

To reach this point however, developers need to define these rules, and thus my original argument, use code Review to create a set of rules for the formatter.
