It's always clear as to which posters are in the ATC system and who ain't.

Le P:

A student pilot deciding to go around, as a consequence of his or her own training and decision making in the specific circumstances of that decision, are making a decision for which the student and his or her instructor are responsible.

An ATCer saying 'no' to a request for clearance is, apparently, responsible for nothing.

Junior:

We get your point. The pilot was obviously a complete idiot who just didn't know what he was doing.

Andrewr's question says it all.
