I would suspect that experience was created by customers being informed
to the best level of the knowledge available to staff focusing
internally within organisational systems constraints, or who were
merely trying to make the system work, whilst attempting to meet all
the diverse requirements presented to them. The customer being then
left to sort out what is presented to them, in order for it to work for
them.
I recall similar incidents when cheque guarantee cards were first
issued, and again when PIN numbers first started to be used. The
issues there were more often to do with making people fit the system,
as it was perceived by the controlling power at each point of contact,
rather than providing sufficient information to properly inform each
customers comprehension about the system, and when looked at carefully
sometimes their own. They often call it progress...
