Seems to me that:

1) The FO's actions may have been consistent with his training; and

2) That training was not appropriate for the Airbus rudder system.

Thus while the fin failure might be classified as pilot-induced, the system failure occurred at a much higher level; and I'm not inclined to point my finger at the crew.
