Stump the Searchers
I tried searching for the word: caspetitious found here:
Did you really mean: capricious (Google) or captious (Bing) ?
Why no, if I had meant something other than caspetitious I would have entered it, right ?
This is the only link Google found:

Which happens to be a link to the same story I was reading => Protective Mimicry, page 37, February 1953 issue of Galaxy Magazine:

I have mentioned the Luminist archives before:

Here is a link to the Luminist site: https://www.luminist.org/archives/
Plenty of reading material on Luminist.
So what does caspetitious mean ? There is a word: cespititious:
Since it's only 2 letters different let's say Galaxy made a mistake. Using caspetitious as an adjective for a bank manager might be a fancy way of saying the bank person was a clod ?
BTW here is the X-1 episode (OTR) of Protective Mimicry (they didn't use the word: caspetitious):

Oh yeah, what about AI ? The heck with AI, who needs more of that in their life ?
