What a sad picture you paint Wombat, tragic would be a better word.
To add credence to your scenario, I believe it is significant that New Zealand found itself in the same position as Australia some years ago.
It took a major accident and a royal commission for them to finally accept their regulator was incompetent.
As you allude, Australia is in the same boat they were in. They went on to reform and ended up with very highly regarded regulation around the world.
Australia had the chance to embrace their reforms, but chose to ignore the obvious.
As you describe, people ignorant of the facts, will have to lose their lives because Australia chose to ignore the lessons of history and of course nobody will accept responsibility.
