Mmmm ...
Whilst I have to agree that the Pilot is responsible for having sufficient fuel for flight .... I believe it is the responsibility of the refueling crew to ensure that the tanks are not filled to overflowing ....
The man with the nozzle is supposed to check that fuelling rate does NOT exceed capacity of the aircraft accept the fuel...... his Mk 1 eyeball should be focused on the tank lip at all times whilst he is on the job!
