Just naming a 'staffer' though seems to already be a way to apportion blame to a segment of the employees, insulating management from what was done. Named or not doesn't really matter, clearly blame is being assigned.
I think those are Bloomberg's words, or their paraphrasing of the grapevine. The high level people that I knew there weren't petty, and everyone was of the opinion that it didn't matter who clicked the button: we were all in the same boat.
Precisely. It is never just one error. At a minimum two and if you really stare at this sort of thing long enough it isn't rare at all to discover a whole chain of them. The only difference with all the times that it went right is that this time everything was aligned 'just so'.
