ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Bulk Dispatch Lapse

Okay, let me explain the concept of a bulk dispatch lapse in a way that a 5-year-old can understand.

Imagine you are playing with a bunch of toy cars, and you have a big pile of them. Now, let's say you want to send all these cars to different places like your toy garage, your friend's house, or even to a toy store. So, you decide to send all the cars at once in one big group.

But here's the thing - someone forgot to double-check the addresses of where these cars were supposed to go. So, instead of sending each car to its correct destination, all the cars were sent randomly to different places.

This is what we call a "bulk dispatch lapse". It means that when you try to send a lot of things together, there was a mistake and they didn't go to the right places.

Just like with the toy cars, a bulk dispatch lapse can happen in real-life situations too. For example, when a company is delivering a lot of packages at once, they might make a mistake and send some packages to the wrong addresses.

This can cause a lot of confusion and problems because the people who were supposed to get the packages didn't receive them, and the people who got the wrong packages might not know what to do with them.

So, when you hear the term "bulk dispatch lapse," it just means that a mistake was made while sending a lot of things together, and they ended up going to the wrong places.
