I'm all for science, but as one of the other comments points out, you can't ignore other factors at play and just exclude the humans from the equation. It's not like science is brought upon us from the heavens above. If some product cost billions in R&D and still does not work quite as planned, you may rest assured that the owners will go to all lengths to cover the losses and persuade buyers to ignore the facts as long as possible. This is simple logic, isn't it?
