Yeah but government disaster reports are supposed to be slow. It’s every i dotted, every t crossed, and the providence of every screw investigated. Oftentimes the root cause is what everyone knew already, but the report is meant to leave no doubt and to label every step of failure so that people can recognize and resolve intermediate level causes and understand the immediate causes.

Yeah, I remember reading a past article about how the CEO was repeatedly informed about critical issues with this sub, but he didn’t seem to care. At least he was among those who died. If he hadn’t been aboard this sub, would he have changed his tune? All I know about this guy is that he was a scumbag CEO who ignored vital safety issues, so I’m going to guess “hell no.”
