If people claim the socialist Euro compensation like this whenever it's due regardless of whether or not they suffered, in the end airlines like Cathay will just raise minimum connection time and everyone will lose.
Even OMAAT starts to lobby for more passenger protections:

OMAAT: Airlines Cancel Thousands Of Flights, Have Christmas Disaster

OMAAT: Southwest Airlines Cancels Most Flights, Gives Up

Granted a Lefty, though having a 15+ years experience with International flying, so certainly something genuine to say.
