From what Doug posted it sounds like they were relying on Dan Knoll as well as Lampson, at least internally -- although it appears he may have been wrong on this one too. I don't think anyone is acting in bad faith here, given that most of these calls are judgment calls based on circumstantial evidence, it's really a question of what your starting point is and what the burden of proof is. Varying the starting presumption and burden of proof can greatly affect the outcome.
