My response to a comment:

Comment:“How can such a thing pass without a public scandal?” The question
is appropriate from a secular perspective, which assumes that such matters
must be debated with full exposure to the public eye. Yet, notwithstanding
the explosive material, there was no public nuclear blast.
Response:Interesting trade off - public disclosure will likely reduce the
probability of future situations, but at the cost of communal self
perception. What other trade offs should be considered?

Not dispositive but IIRC public announcements so that the people will learn
from the sinner's punishment were part of the torah's penal code.

Your thoughts?
