Perhaps not, but you are the one bringing up the context of a criminal trial, which does not otherwise seem relevant.

I think Nyb is talking about cases where it could be clearly demonstrated that the President was not involved in the approval process. Later saying he would have approved it anyways wouldn't cure that.

I think there are two related reasons: one, motivation dies quickly after becoming mired in bureaucracy. Someone who is highly motivated to provide a mentoring opportunity for a group of boys might not be able to find the drive to complete more than a single form, let alone typing up paragraphs of baloney. Same thing hampering science IMO.

Second is legitimate fear of liability. Even if you jump through all the paperwork hoops, even a minor accident can easily result in years of expensive legal wrangling, even if you ultimately win. Insurance against this is expensive and yet scourge bureaucratic hurdle to doing anything.

As usual, if you want to make the world a better place, first kill all the lawyers.

A better analogy then would be that the SVP of your division says your boss is still employed, but a SVP of a different division which contains HR says he's not

I just finished the CP2077 main storyline yesterday, but I had left a lot of the side jobs undone. I'll definitely be going back to do some of those, but after a while I really miss the humor and sarcasm of, say, GTAV, which makes just wandering around the world fun.
