Could also be the use of minilabs operated by untrained or uncaring
personnel in a rush to get the stuff out the door.
Hadn't thought about the point source thing. WR surprises me sometimes. :)

Howcome so many folks here have/had all these troubles with dust and
scratches on negatives?
I think the advent of point source scanners showed a lot of scratches that
were invisible with diffusion printing.
A lot of my negs from one lab were pretty much unusable as scanned negs,
but just fine if enlarged in a darkroom.
