It\\\'s an incomplete barricade because they don\\\'t account for the ceiling, but the one completed is effective against a frontal assault. It\\\'s not an obvious flaw during the moment, just in hindsight, so it doesn\\\'t qualify for the trope. The failure lies not in the barricade itself but in the lack of awareness of their surroundings and in not anticipating that \\\"they can think\\\" . More of a tactical blunder, yet neither the audience or the characters were expecting that outmanoeuvre, as the previous repelled attack was a frontal one, so again the flaw is not obvious until it\\\'s too late.


I agree it\\\'s an example of MyopicArchitecture , which describes a bigger picture beyond the barricade itself. In fact I\\\'m rewritting a similar entry around that trope.
