A single event of “SUFFICIENTLY ADVANCED
INCOMPETENCE” is indeed
“INDISTINGUISHABLE FROM MALICE,” whereas multiple targeted events are not incompetence nor malice but pure sabotage.

Hence the need for Hanlon's Razor; never attributed to malice what is adequately explained by stupidity.

The assumption here that the appropriate response is punishment. But other responses may have better outcomes.
Punishment may teach the recipient new ways to do harm. A better result would be achieved by making the offender harmless.
Not as satisfying as punishment, but better harm reduction.

Taking the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) test many times isn't good news. Repeated is to check the rate of decline, in cases of dementia or Alzheimer. It's also used to measure rate of recovery after a stroke. It doesn't require to solve a trigonometry problem.
