I mostly agree, but I think this is more of a cover your ass type situation. Let's face it, half the workers of a company will have less than average performance. A handful of these people will be on the chopping block for next time they screw up. So next time you are even 5 minutes late and there are some photos online of you out drinking the night before could be grounds for termination. So sure, for most it's normal behavior, but if you are one of the ones just sqeaking by then it becomes a convenient excuse for the company.

"comprehensive list of the names of hundreds of Afghan civilian informants[citation needed]"

I have heard there were 2 names leaked, I have heard there were thousands linked. You seem pretty sure on hundreds leaked. I've yet to hear any citations and I am beginning to think the thousands of innocent Afghans is a "won't someone think of the children" plea.

He wasn't dreaming at the end, the top wobbled. Considering the slow zoom in on the top, if the filmmaker intended anyone to interpret the ending as dream, the top wouldn't have wobbled. The wobble was just to elicit groans from the audience as it started to fall, and made us start cranking our minds to figure out what happened.

The simple and non-ambiguous ending is that he isn't in a dream because Saito shot him, waking him up. The last scene before Cobb woke up was Saito picking up a handgun. This was Cobb's plan all along. He sent Fischer back to reality after planting the idea (inception) that Fischer would be able to break up his father's empire. This allowed Cobb to live a life with his kids. Well, his creepy motherless kids.

There are many more complicated theories, but I think this is the intended "obvious" ending.
