That is just my take. Office relationships are the most common. Afterall, the boy and the girl see each other 1/3 of the time per day. Sparks are bound to fly if everything is aligned.

You're obviously not someone familiar with designing control systems. What you are referring to is something called Compensating Controls. They are very expensive to put in place and usually companies do not want or they simply cannot afford to build in redundancies in their design.
After all, who knows which roles or positions will become compromised?
Anyway, not to stray too far from the original topic, I think it is a generally bad idea to start a relationship within the same company. In some high pressure industries like Audit and parts of Finance, fucking a colleague is very common, but this practice is at best, tolerated.
It is best that one party resigns or be reassigned to another part of the company if the relarionship becomes serious. I never liked handling relationship fallouts between two members of my department who happen to like fucking each other, it is at best a complication and at worst, a managerial headache that needs intervention down the road.
