This reminds me of the reality of 'criminal convenience.' A criminal isn't going to plan the perfect attack so that they don't get caught; they'll just smash and grab.

I feel like this would just entrench cynicism as a way of life. Kind of like it already is: everyone expects bad things to happen and they feel they are inevitable. It doesn't improve anything because so few people believe real improvement is possible. Admittedly, I think that things are getting better.
