Of course human nature is like that... and in this case the whole thing is just too complicated (you might say that it's already 'broken' in a way)

OMG! I can't believe how much to the point you got! Exactly that's why I pull the whole story to the limits. Sometimes something that is simply problematic must be broken to be able to start all over again on the right bases (if there's space of course to do so)!

I really love your pov in your comments - very insightful! :)
