This is a naive question, but isn't it the job of the director to make sure
that NO SHOT has a boom mike in it? Letting a film go out such that sloppy
projection lets the boom mike in is just asking for it. Naive question #2:
after 100+ years of filmmaking, why is this still a problem?

P.S. OK, only about 50 years of filmmaking with mikes, but you get the idea...
