Thought this was @dasharez0ne.bsky.social at first. The "oh shoot" skeleton definitely fits the vibe.
It, like other thought terminating cliches, conveys the information "I am not interested in discussing this anymore." This isn't necessarily a bad thing either. It's sort of like the serenity prayer, sometimes it's more important to focus on what's next instead of why.

That's awful. I know as a government agency y'all have to stay professional-ish, but I can just imagine some CPSC agent getting off the phone after an unproductive call with a manufacturer explaining "This freaking guy! This A-hole is gonna kill someone!"
Oh wow, I just found a review for an identical product sold under a different brand in 2023 specifically noting that it isn't VGBA compliant. Sounds like someone has a warehouse of these things and is being a real scoundrel to try and sell them all off.
Oh also, don't feel like an idiot. I looked into the death of Virginia Graeme Baker and it's unbelievable. They estimate the suction was at 700+ pounds of pressure and it took two men to remove her, breaking the cover and cracking the cement. It's not an obvious danger!
One of the tests involves placing a foam square over the drain and testing the pull force to remove. Compliant covers tend to be convex, making it hard for a strong seal to form.
