Seems to me that NSI have shown that their training procedures don't work, 
as the operator in question payed no attention to a computer generated
warning that the files about to be loaded were corrupt. 

I personally don't find their assurance that such duties will now be
performed by "more senior personel" to be totally satisfactory, perhaps 
auditing of their training procedures by said "more senior personnel"
would be better...
