Methinks the operational gains could be done for 1/100th or less of the $30B+ the A380 cost. Failing at a huge project isn't a way to get governments to back off, it's a way to get them to realize they should stop funding you.

They don't have their "own" money (it's taxpayer money), and in some ways they aren't allowed to pursue their own agenda (it's not their money right?), it is political; so rocking the boat by pushing change can be difficult. So for these types of organisation sometimes it takes catastrophic events to foment change.
