This is sorta tangential... I immediately thought of these sort of flops when I musk/spaceX announce the boring company. These things happen all the time. Where I live (dublin), the overcoat scandal du jour is a big hospital build that is costing 300% over budget, due to this sort of failure. Then follows the finger pointing, moral righteousnous, promises that heads will roll, long, boring speeches (we are very good at these here) about greed and accountability. But... like enterprise software contracts... all the agreements are carefully designed so that liability doesn't stick to you when failure inevitably comes. Anyway... Musk. Being this name-brand business magnate makes avoiding liability much harder. If they were contracted to do a boring priject, they'd naturally have something riding on success. Boring company is just an example, but name brand contractors for city level projects may be useful... A good name to put on the line. Just a thought.
