Mr Bob Ross would like a word…
I agree with you on inadvertently, but accident, if I’m not mistaken would generally considered something where you do not inherently attribute blame. At least thats what I recall being justification for making the change in UK in calling traffic ‘incidents’ incidents instead of accidents several years back. Dunno if it stuck though.
Interesting. Although I still maintain that accident bears a negative connotation, even though blame isn’t necessarily a factor. As if the outcome was a negative thing, rather than a positive, as in this case.

incidentally feels better here than accidentally or inadvertantly

Wait is that real? I thought it was just a joke when it was said in Hot Fuzz
tbf it was played straight in Hot Fuzz, Sgt. Angel was right and there was somebody who caused it.
