again we are confusing the. concepts of responcibility and best practice.

it's best practise to vet the builder to make sure i get someone who does his job properly. its best practice fpr a war correspondent to wear body armor, and to avoid dodgy beighbourhoods on the way home

but its tjr builders responsevility to do his job properly and not to defraud you, a reporter is not at fault for getting shot and it's not my responsebility not to get mugged
