Crashing into a highway would have resulted in similar loss of life. Airplanes are only barely safe when they land without gear, and almost any obstruction is going to be more solid than a machine that's built to be as lightweight as

Very, very few airport runways are long enough for a plane without brakes to land halfway and be fine. It's simply not possible to build airports in useful places and guarantee three-mile runways.

And those people get promoted entirely of the luck of having a decent manager. Everyone else who has a mediocre manager will end up spinning their wheels and wondering why they're not getting promoted.

At 20k euros, would it not just be cheaper to hire some software people to jailbreak them? If companies that did this got jailbroken and blacklisted by the government, pretty much nobody would try this bullshit.

Yeah, but it's significantly harder to pull off collusion when there's competition. This software is very clearly price-fixing, but in a world with more housing it should be next to impossible to do that effectively.
