I doubt that this is the case.  Poor software design seems to be the
major cause.  As Brian showed, there are lots and lots of needless 
updates.

For example, delaying a withdraw might allow one to realize that it is no
longer needed.

There seems to be too much emphasis on short term patches vs study and
long term solutions.
