You are still missing the point.
1. The statistics do not imply there were only 17 incidences. Only so many bothered to file a complaint.
2. This is not a relative issue between airlines. A "cavalier" attitude cannot be justified in any airline. As such, if another airline has a more "cavalier" attitude then it should be taken to ask for it and as I said, I would egg anyone flying any airline to take the airline to task if they reported such an incidence on any board. I don't recall anyone posting such a thing on any other board and so I haven't. To repeat again, this is not a CO vs. other airlines issue.
3. To say CO should be let off the hook because there are more complaints against other airlines, like I said, wholly misses the point.
If you get off the "circling the wagon" attitude for posts about CO, you just might empathize with the original poster to demand that the airline do better in such cases.
