The flight wasn't delayed though; the passenger was delivered to the airport
Why should the airline be expected to take responsibility for things that occur after arrival
If you took a bus to the shops and found that the shop was closed due to a power outage when you got there, would you have any expectation that the bus company would take you back home for free and refund for the fare paid

I've had only one Trip In Vain incident. Many years ago, was flying 9K BOS-ACK to appear in court down there. Circled the ACK airport a couple of times due to fog, then headed back to BOS. When we deplaned, they just handed us back our flight coupons. This was when electronic tickets (PTAs at that time) were the exception and nearly everyone was using paper tickets.
