Both you and Davidthefat went in much the same direction, and I must disagree heartily.
The job of the inspectors is, to the best of their ability, check to see that you follow the rules. It is not their responsibilty to make absolutely 100% sure you haven't. They are human, and mistakes are made
all the time.
The blame rests in only one place, and it is not on the inspectors who must inspect 60+ robots for thousands of possible instances where rules can be broken.
Before anyone says "but this is an obvious rule", I'll simply point out how many people obviously missed it before it was finally caught.
Again - it is the inspectors responsibility to do the best they can. Not to be perfect. In the end, much like any other sport, there is only one place the final blame lies if rules are broken.
