They screw up by not thinking ahead. They'll come up with pairings in one round that, while technically within the rules, make it impossible to pair the following round properly, when with a little fiddling you could alter "this" round's pairings so that the future works out a lot better.
And the index cards aren't bad in your example, the person using them is!
