Even better, this policy essentially said some manager at the sales office knowingly approved the sale of industry only tickets through one of the largest public sellers of tickets.

Even if a totally innocent clerical error these AD75 made it into public distribution outlets, KE has a legal obligation to notify any purchasers. This is especially true as the definitely know about this sale at this point.
