I think I answered it, Shel, in one of those comments of mine that
nobody else seemed to care for.
I think they need to look into it, for two reasons: One being the reason
you just stated; the other, that every once in a while, however rarely,
there might actually be something there that needs to be dealt with, and
ignoring that risk is no part of their job. (Which is probably the very
same argument the said citizens would use when raising h*** about being
ignored.)
It would, of course, be way preferable if the citizens weren't as prone
to complain and be concerned about so many little things, but rebottling
that particular genie may take a long while, if it's possible at all.
