Whenever you read about an incredibly unlucky criminal, there's a chance that the unlucky event is a parallel construction to the classified real reason why they were caught. Not sure how exactly that would have worked in this case.

Yes, it could be. But it is a hypothetical that smells like a conspiracy theory. I wonder why you think it is a good idea to go for these hypotheticals?

Are you arguing that the system may be more resilient than it seems? Like, maybe there is a conspiracy working on security. And they keep themselves secret so attackers would be susceptible to under-appreciate the real level of security and make mistakes that inevitable would caught?

It seems like a over-stretched explanation, doesn't it. Care to explain yourself?
