My guess is that it just ran the scan and emailed back the results with no
analysis. It sounds like the software is functioning 'properly' but the
humanware is not. But then, there is no reason to expect them to be subject
matter experts, either. One should just hope they would supply better reports
than it appears Oliver and his professor received.
Re the professor, he/she may have just tossed the report to Oliver and said,
"Explain this". Once Oliver discussed the issue with Ukund it should
be blinding obvious to the professor.
