I don't think you needed to ask for agreement.
- mannykannot 1y agoPartly on account of the "perhaps" in the original, and partly because I have seen (elsewhere) "just doing his job" defenses. In corner cases, culpability for uncertain expertise can be a tricky issue - you may recall the case of the Italian geologists, a few years back, indicted for minimizing the risk of an earthquake shortly before one occurred - but the case here seems pretty clear-cut (again, I'm speaking morally, not legally.)
