That's some very twisted logic. If I expect someone to clean the kitchen as part of restaurant closeup checklist, and they fuck it all up, would I blame the checklist, or the person doing the work?

You blame the person fucking it up. In this case, it's someone who only cares about checking a box. Or someone who pushes broken shit.



If this person simultaneously fucks up millions of kitchens around the world, you do not blame that person. You blame the checklist which encouraged giving a single person global interlocked control over millions of kitchens, without any compartmentalization.

No, you definitely do, even more than before. Let's say for example that the requirement is to disinfect anything that touches food. And the bleach supplier fucks it all up. You blame the bleach supplier. You don't throw out the disinfectant requirement.
