You are only complaining that an heuristic outputted a result you don't like.

That's not a bug nor a problem. It's just that you feel you're entitled to an outcome that suits your fancy, regardless of the process involved.

Heuristics don't even ensure they'll output the same result twice, either because their input changes with time or because they already integrate a stochastic component.

Demanding that an operator polices the output of said heuristics especifically to suit your personal taste makes no sense at all, let alone demanding people be "held responsible" for disappointing you.
