"Inspectors only examine less than five percent of a shipment."
Reason: with such a small sampling fraction, contaminated boxes or items can easily be missed even when an inspector examines some product. The other statements (no on‑site bacteria testing, only one fish per box, not qualified to diagnose illness) may limit detection or interpretation, but the primary distinguishing cause here is the tiny inspection coverage.
