This isn't a $20B project paid for by a corrupt government and poorly educated population like what NASA deals with, where indeed they cannot go without a measure for every contingency and without promising to burn billions of dollars buying votes, because otherwise they won't get funding at all. This had a total cost of $121M. Like any sane engineering project, it did accept some risk and chance of failure as part of the tradeoffs. Part of that was potentially landing in a bad orientation.
