I think it’s complicated. The dining hall blowing up is immediately harmful. People died or were injured and the consequences of that radiate out. The literal harm, the pain from seeing those we care about hurt, consequences and what people think of those consequences…
But despite that, it’s a constrained event that people can point to. There are solid answers, whether you like them or not.
A warden, or multiple wardens, tracking an inmate’s movement or communications is more complicated. People have all sorts of reasons to object, in principle. Personally, I don’t think it would be particularly effective and thus not worth the trade off of trust.
‘Envy blew up the dining hall’ and ‘wardens will invade people’s privacy’ are both simple. They’re not correct, or I think they’re lacking too much to be correct, but there’s a difference in weight.
