There are multiple theories about Chaos.... having said that.. there is also something called Orchestrated Chaos.. The most perfect Orchestrated Chaos would be one that can easily be explained by 'simple incompetence'.
While I am not a subscriber to conspiracy theories...but having worked with the ILEC's and watched their behavior over a a couple of decades, it is very hard for me to deny that there isn't something which is best called Orchestrated Chaos, whose end results always somehow fall in favor of the Orchestrator while simple explanations allow for the Orchestrator to distance themselves from the responsibility ....
