Fraud is likewise an elective and some choose that path. (And are you sure you don't mean selectively)
For the record, transparency and elective reporting are polar opposites. Without transparency the issue of cash allocations being clearly understood is impossible. While we can not discuss specifics from other companies, I am sure that a little research into history will expose how trust in everything management dishes out, without means of challenging, can result in certain levels of disappointment when the truth is finally revealed. I am sure that could very well be the same here.
