Just the way it is.
Yup, and it doesnt even have to be due to the tune. The blame will always fall back to the tuner, atleast initially. Even years down the road I have people call me up asking why their truck is acting funny, everyone immediately assumes its the tune. Im not sure if its just easiest to blame something that you do not fully understand or what, but it is indeed a tightrope walk.
