Is it? It seems to lead to a lot of discontent when petitions don't get the response people want.

Perhaps only in the larger umbrella. As in, "we have a site where you can sign petitions, and if you get 25k signees, you are guaranteed a response".

It sounds good in theory. But nobody in proportion to the general population is actually using it (much less heard about it), so it's just a cutesy PR move at this point.
