Siustou is a good climber, this is true, however when you look at the others in the team I think you are forced to draw the conclusion that Siustou was picked to drag them through the flat stages rather than be the man for the mountains, so in that sense it is not as disastrous as it could have been had, Froome, say, been badly hurt going over his bars in the finish the day before.
The most dubious of all the team picks was probably going for Eisel as Cavs sherpa rather than picking Danny Pate, or Flecha.
