To each his own, I suppose; I don't recall them writing an article each time an aircraft holds short of an active runway, outlining the grim outcome had the aircraft continued.

When tower is running it a little tight and sends a guy around within a half mile final and it makes it into the news for no reason and they call it a "near miss", that's one thing. When an aircraft lines up with a taxiway, continues the approach after identifying that aircraft are on the surface with which he is lined up and subsequently executes the go around at 400 feet, that is on a completely different level.
