"But policy should not be made on the exceptional instance. " John Translation: Exceptional is bad or not policy worthy. Mediocrity is good or must be accepted. Mr Lucky .................... you really think that's a translation of what John said? If you base policy on the exceptional, you will probably build a profoundly unworkable system. If I tool my machinery expecting everyone to be ambidextrous, I'm probably going to run in to some ergonomic problems down the road in production. And "exceptional is bad"? I mean really. Clearly much of the time we twist the words of people we do not agree with, but this was such a pretzel I think it deserves comment.
