Perhaps for the same reason, "foolproof" is now a formal term, whereas "idiot- proof" remains informal. Both terms are originally adjectives ("a foolproof plan"), but can be used as verbs ("foolproof this design").

IGN criticized the Wii version's character design, calling it "freaktacular". The same website also highly criticized the DS version for its dodgy graphics and called it "broken" (due to the fact that whenever the system is shut down, the money goes back into the same case from the previous game the next time the game is played).

Although both are idiot proof strategies, an interlock should not be confused with a simple safety switch. For example, in a typical household microwave oven, the switch that disables the magnetron if the door is opened is not an interlock. Rather, it would be considered an interlock if the door were locked while the magnetron is on, and the magnetron were prevented from operating while the door is open. Interlocks may include sophisticated elements such as curtains of infrared beams, photodetectors, a computer containing an interlocking computer program, digital or analogue electronics, or simple switches and locks.
