Yes, because threat of punishment stops all
- pdonis 3y ago> threat of punishment stops all Threat of having your life and career absolutely ruined pretty much does, yes. The key is that the threat has to be believed. For things like signing off as an engineer of record on a project, yes, the threat is believable. For being an investment banker who cooks the books, the threat of being punished might not be so believable, no, particularly if the bank can be portrayed as "too big to fail". But that's not the kind of project we're talking about here.

- pdonis 3y ago> it could be similar You evidently are not familiar with how things like bridges get built and how signoffs by engineers of record are made. Yes, you'll get caught, and yes, you'll receive the harshest punishment.
