I didn't remember that case, but it does sound from the kid's side of the story like ND bungled that recruitment internally (i.e. that Alexander wasn't supposed to offer him but did). I've seen no indication that ND has an intentional practice of making offers that are not "commitable" (without explaining the exact situation to the player), and my understanding is that they don't. I will say that if what this kid reported is accurate, then ND absolutely should have fallen on its sword and honored the commitment.
