100%. Joe Bureaucrat doesn't give one whit about race conditions in his employer's business logic. He has no reason to. If he can creatively interpret the situation as himself catching a hacker (the hacker being the researcher submitting the report)? That's prime. He can brag about it to the end of his days and monetize it at promotion time.
I may have been - but it opened up a whole new thought process. Imagine bounded logic competing for resources and otherwise causing mis-appropriated logic. Profound.
