Rational != principled.

  Yes. I don't want to assume an adversarial posture on this, I'm mostly an outsider, observer. I probably can't understand nuances in US domestic politics (although i am opposed to this kind of semi random behaviour by institutions, I did not see this signalled in NOG lists and the like as coming down the pipe) So I'm wondering if this is as simple as cost/benefit? Did somebody do the sums and decide the delivery was sub par for spend? The alternatives are mostly very sad: they're fools. Replacing a process can be beneficial. There's usually overlap.

    > Did somebody do the sums and decide the delivery was sub par for spend? That would be a very interesting analysis and something to learn from. It would also help prevent similar mistakes in the future. It's really unlikely someone would go to such effort and just keep the results to themselves.
