I wasn't able to get how it went badly from that article. It seems like there were some management concerns, some factionalization (that didn't turn into anything worse?), and the entire thing looked like a boondoggle, but the major problems seemed to be they got some of the numbers wrong and had to hot-patch it? The takeaway I get from there is that it's theoretically possible, results are promising, but we don't yet have full formulae.

That said, I agree that the results showed potential. I’d love to see a Jeff Bezos or Elon Musk give this idea another shot.
