IMO the conundrum exists because sceptics want their cake and eat it.  They want the McCanns and their friends to be neglectful and not to be doing frequent checks, they want there to be no opportunity in the timeline for an abductor to enter the apartment, they want to heap extra criticism on the McCanns for giving a putuative abductor extra opportunity to strike by leaving the door unlocked.  There is no conundrum created by the Tapas group's version of events IMO.

IMO, supporters want their cake and eat it, stringent checking yet still a hypothetical window of opportunity.

The forum appears to recognise the risk of unwanted intruders if you leave your holiday apartment unlocked yet at least half the forum also appears to believe an abduction is virtually impossible because of the timeline, yet these very same doubters also appear to believe that the timeline vastly overstates the number of checks, so as I see it this logic poses a bit of a conundrum.

Luckily we have an independent witness who proved that the checking regime was exaggerated.

Which the timeline amply demonstrates.  At least 10 minutes in fact.

What do you mean?

You mention Gerry doing a covert 9.30 visit.  Post 133
I wondered where that came from
I believe everything. And l believe nothing.
I suspect everyone. And l suspect no one.
I gather the facts, examine the clues... and before   you know it, the case is solved!"

Or maybe not -

Faithlilly claims he did.
