There’s a reason why most things aren’t done “by the book”. Some things that may be in the manual are simply not feasible to do in real life. Experience as well as knowledge of the specifics of an environment triumph over generalized, standardized, sanitized instructions.
Like. Imagine a kitchen where one of the rules was, “wash and return utensils immediately after use”. There are some situations where it would work and would be a good idea (such as if there’s a limited number of each utensil). But scale the kitchen up – with dozens of cooks and a devoted utensil for each station – and suddenly you have huge lanes of congestion around the storage and washing areas.
The real world isn’t a textbook scenario. Human beings complicate things, and he needs to learn this to be a good butler and a good leader. Ideally, after graduating, he’d have some time to observe a household without immediately being put in the driver’s seat. An apprenticeship or something.
(Also look at examples of “malicious compliance” AKA following the letter of the law as exactly as possible)
