This is absolutely key. Policy is normally right. It has to be.
Otherwise it is bad policy. If a policy *normally* gives the wrong
result, it is bad policy. If it *sometimes* gives the bad result, it
is fallible policy. And fallible, dear friends, is the best we're
going to get.
We must be very careful to avoid process/policy is evil.
