That might have been part of a suite of penalties laid on someone who failed the attitude test.

Generally I treat these hearsay rumours of risk as a bit like the story of Aeschylus. Killed when (allegedly) an eagle dropped a tortoise on his head. Or the fellow who “Dutch ovened” his missus with fatal results. How many risks do people want to dream up?
