Rob contends that responsibility tracking is less important at finer granularities.  I don't agree.  Responsibility tracking is less important when the consequences are less, as in his bicycle/cookie example.  However, if you can do responsibility at low or no cost, why not do it all the time?  I might find out after the cookie was eaten that it was from a batch I had dropped my wedding ring into.
