For \(E, F \in \mathfrak{B}(X)\) we set \(\lambda_{EF} = \inf \{\|z - x\| : x \in E, z \in F \}\). Let \(\mathfrak{D}\) denote the closure (under the maximum distance) of the set of all \((E, F) \in \mathfrak{B}(X) \times \mathfrak{B}(X)\) such that \(\lambda_{EF} \gt 0\). It is proved that the set of all \((E, F) \in \mathfrak{D}\) for which the minimization problem \(\min_{x \in E, z\in F}\|x - z\|\) fails to be well posed in a \(\sigma\)-porous subset of \(\mathfrak{D}\).
