A "fat finger" of only 10x is not that much of a fat finger and may not be detected for it's probably nothing out of the ordinary compared to the brokerage account's size. The fat finger in TFA, however, is a quite bigger fat finger: $444 bn instead of $58m.
That's 10 000x. That one is, indeed, a UI issue.
