Failure to warn is only one component of liability. There is design defect, manufacturing defect, negligence, and so on. "It's complicated" is very accurate.

- chao- 14y agoThough I don't presume to have read his mind, I feel like sirrocco is falling prey to a line of thought that I often do with regards to law. As a programmer, I often want to build some sort of deterministic decision tree regarding matters. The instinct of "Once I have all possible behaviors and paths modeled, an optimal solution will present itself!" is a strong one. And then my friends in law school remind me, sometimes loudly, how the facts or circumstances can vary greatly, and how nothing in life is quite that simple. Alas.
