Pet resists.. why?

[TheGeneral]

<DIV>This has got to be one of the most irritating things to me right now.. well among some of our other issues.  Why in the world can our pets be resisted?  The only reason they work the way they do is because we have to have a hostile target to summon them against.  I do not think there is any reason that they should get a resist check against them.  Nothing is more irritating than casting the pet and then a few seconds later realizing that it never got summoned and having to wait for the recast timer.  Has anyone ever heard anything on this?  Is it working as intended or is the resist check a simple mechanics oversight?</DIV>

That's just about as annoying as having Call of the Overlord fizzle. Why?
