avoidable
This term carries a strong connotation of negligence or failure in judgment. When a disaster is described as avoidable, it implies that the necessary steps to prevent it were known or available, but were ignored or overlooked, often shifting the focus toward accountability and blame.
In legal or insurance contexts, the word is used to determine liability. It distinguishes between an inevitable accident, which is viewed as a misfortune, and a preventable one, which is viewed as a mistake. It is frequently paired with intensifiers like completely or easily to emphasize the degree of negligence.
