But a suitable topic for this list. I have to say that with this kind of thing, treated as an anecdote, my first reaction is that triage helps: is this (a) both sides at fault (common enough), (b) one side at fault, or (c) the system working as intended? If (c), of course, it is possible to argue that our policies are so miraculous that the "intended" result is always also the "optimal" result. But I don't suppose we always sincerely believe that.
