This is Buddhist ethics, not a fraud detector; the bounded analogy concerns a performable promise. A failed project alone proves no personal vice. The question is which action was accepted and what happened. External success does not belong entirely to one participant, even when they conscientiously perform their part and honestly explain its outcome. An ethical comparison should not turn an uncertain result into evidence about someone's entire character."
