For some clients we use tools that alert if large amounts of data are transferred outside the network in a single flow. So even if it's someone with valid access, it would be investigated immediately.

You can't blame the people that designed it. Some hairstyles are just bunched up and the machine can't tell what it is, so it gets flagged for manual inspection. This is not a problem that is easily solved with technology. Your on

Checks are a holdover from the 1800s. They don't have a place in modern banking. If the US were willing to put tighter rules around bank transfer fees, it would be possible to create a European style system where bank to bank transfers
