Default Re: Right answer - Wrong reason

Edit: whoops, I meant this in reply to luckyme...

I think you did a good job with the morph there, but I'm curious as to why it required a morph? Don't those kinds of things happen every day?

A typical case might be if you're having some friends over and you order a pizza....

Which would you prefer:

A: it arrives 30 min. late, cold and soggy, even though the guy was a nice guy who tried his best, had some bad luck and maybe wasn't a very skilled driver, and even apologized

B: it arrives on time, hot and crispy, but the guy only did it because it's his last delivery and he wants to make it to the whorehouse before it closes.

Are you saying that what goes on in the pizza guy's heart is more important than getting the product and service that you paid for?

Are there no services that you purchase for which you expect competence regardless of intentions? I'm thinking of cases in which the service is of high value and importance, and there is little personal interaction with the provider of the service.
