This is a test. . .but not necessarily an intentional one by the recruiter. It is a test of your maturity and perseverance.

People make mistakes, schedules don't always line up, and sometimes people are overwhelmed or aren't good at their job as a recruiter. Unless you are interviewing for a job with the recruiting department, you should not hold the rest of the company equally at fault for difficulty in getting to the interview.

If you need to say something, do it positively when asking for the rescheduling, and then be frank about how to improve the experience after you have the job (or have decided not to take it).
