That's just damned inconsiderate for both the airline and especially the crew, and I'm surprised at that kind of knee-jerk reaction. It's just not how you'd approach such a situation in terms of basic common sense, especially when the grounds proved to be unfounded.

Very unfair on the crew involved. Hopefully a one-off.
