I'm not sure how it is in other countries, but at least here in the US there's this cultural tendency to want to crush anyone who's made any kind of mistake, or even made the right decision but happened by chance to have had something go wrong in a way that could have been avoided with a different decision, if they can be blamed for it, but also to accept paper-thin excuses for why a person who might be held responsible can't, in fact, be blamed for it, and once blame has been so laundered enough times we just forget about the whole thing. It's completely weird, really expensive, and ethically gross. And it's present at every level of our society, just about everywhere.
