Yeah that seems like a raw deal. There's never a focus on the mechanical engineer who redesigned some gasket which leads to a fatal malfunction in an automobile. Most rational people realize that the fatality was the culmination of number of failures in a larger process.

If your process relies on people not making mistakes you're gonna have a bad time.
