It's largely the fact that people over simplify things and distill everything into simple "right/wrong" and "good/bad" and "i'm right/you're wrong" personal views and cling to them no matter what... resulting in clearly flawed and incomplete arguments to begin with, which sparks discussion and debate and keeps it alive ;)
btw.. I don't know that the patient wasn't 100% ok to go for an unsupervised activity. I would surmise this decision was made by the head doctors of the facility and a board of specialists that have been monitoring and evaluating his progress. Their big failure in my opinion, was in creating a situation in what should have been obvious to even a child, would quickly become a PR shit storm. He could have been "supervised" and it would have not made the news.
