Agreed humans are unpredictable, though today at Walmart at a register the chip failed at they made me use a different lane rather than let me try it until it let me swipe (said, oh you can't use a chip card in this lane). That was a simple "card problem" error.

In the next lane, I again had the issue I've been having with my Delta Gold Amex where it takes a few tries to go through...
Re: Chase: Bank operations. They are planning to issue real chip and PIN cards, but most will have signature set to a higher priority if the current plan is carried out.
Re: Diners Club: It is based on conversations with technical operations and personal experience in a country that only uses C&S for credit cards.
