Dummyproof? Should really have said, failure proof.

And that is the fine line. When things happen one can easily point to the 'idiots' using the system and with 'ever growing idiotism', a manufacturer can start to believe they are running behind that curve. If however the things were more failure proof to begin with, the pool of 'idiots' would likely be smaller?
