I don’t think you can include Beatty and Dunaway in the RCA.  Cullinan’s only job was to get the envelopes right, which he failed to do by not only being “distracted” – he was tweeting and taking selfies – Cullian’s role amounts to willful negligence.  It’s too easy to say now that the presenters should have questioned the envelope and card.?  Why should they?  This wasn’t a forseeable part of what happened – it never happened before, and if anything, both Dunaway and Beatty may have assumed that the Best Actress print on the card was the only mistake, and that La La Land was the winner… which is a logical assumption because LLL was the runaway favorite.  It’s not reasonable to expect the presenters to make a mental leap under the most intense pressure and conclude that the upset happened.
