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.
