** Nobody thinks it is a big deal- M just calls it "very curious". They are worried about Blofeld activating the girls if they try to kill him and it goes wrong, or if they don't give in to his insanely petty demands, or if his demands for a pardon and recognition of his title are only the first of a long list. Blofeld is probably hoping that nobody will risk trying to kill him in case he survives and wants revenge, and makes his demands relatively simple so they are more likely to be met. As to "make it look like he got killed by fellow criminals", Bond ''did'' attack with criminals rather than directly with British intelligence, in part exactly because the British government was too afraid to act in case something went wrong.

** With the grant of amnesty, that could mean that killing Blofeld would be an unlawful killing as, in technicality, he would have no criminal records to his name as he was pardoned. Also, granting amnesty could look bad for MI6 because if the public found out, that means speculation could arise that they are just letting terrorists off the hook when they should be faced with proper persecution.

* How come Blofeld's Angels of Death were due to leave Piz Gloria in the middle of the night, as opposed to next morning? Did that not strike any of them as odd?
* What's with the passage of time at Piz Gloria? When Bond is caught and knocked out by Grunther after trying to bed Ruby at night, he wakes up and is soon shown the remains of Shaun Campbell out of the window. It now seems to be the middle of the day. OK, sure, perhaps that's an exaggerated TapOnTheHead, and Bond was just out for over twelve hours. But then he is locked in the cable car mechanical room, he starts timing how long it takes for the cable car to reach its stations... and now all of a sudden it's night time again?

** She was wearing a very expensive dress (which was ultimately ruined by the water and sand at the end of the filming period). If she were just going swimming, she'd probably remove it beforehand. Since she doesn't, it was evident that she didn't care, since she wouldn't be needing it for much longer.

* Why does anyone think that granting Blofeld amnesty is a big deal? It's not like there's some law of physics that prevents you from hunting him down after he gets amnesty; all you have to do is go back on your word. No one's gonna blame you for killing a megalomaniac who could clearly poses a threat to all life on earth. You don't even have to break your word ''publicly''; just send in some covert agents to track him down and kill him, and then pretend you knew nothing about it. Make it look like he got killed by fellow criminals or something. Who cares? Blofeld should know that an official grant of amnesty won't actually protect him that much. And if he's just in it for his pride or the publicity or something, fine, but even then M should tell Bond something to the effect of "Don't worry about this amnesty thing; we'll kill him sooner or later regardless."

* When Bond and Tracy escape from Blofeld's mooks by car, Bond says he needs to get to the nearest post office to contact London and Tracy responds with "Feldkirch"... Feldkirch is in Austria, several hours away from both St. Moritz (where the Swiss scenes are set in the book) and Lauterbrunnen (where the Swiss scenes are mostly shot in the movie). Surely the nearest post office is closer than an entire country away.

* What makes Bond think that Tracy is attempting suicide in the beginning? She just takes her shoes off and walks into the ocean. Maybe she ''likes'' the ocean. It's not as if she's poised at the edge of a rooftop or something.
