Just playing devil's advocate here.... When they say the "inspector's inability" it isn't automatically clear that it means his incompetence. Especially in that sentence with the word concealment. I'd take that to mean something he wasn't able to access, reach or see. Not that he was too dumb.

All that being said, it's a poorly worded sentence and shouldn't be in there.
