One where idiots hand off responsibility to other idiots and only cover their asses legally.

Creating plausible deniability is one of the top required skills for upper management anywhere.

I fail to see how this brings ANY value to ANYONE, other than those who explicitly wish to engage in abuse of authority. I also fail to see how teaching this as a skill in university is any better than teaching advanced pocket picking skills to school children as part of the standard curriculum.

So, you'll excuse my potty mouth, but I have to repeat myself - EVERYONE engaged on either side of this practice is a certifiable idiot.

Amoral and sociopathic maybe, but they aren't idiots.
