"The people involved are generally very mature and intelligent, and they can admit failure without blushing."
That is because in any *real* science/engineering field you cannot get away with throwing something together and hoping it will work.
i.e. Science/Engineering has rules that usually cannot be broken without *known* and possibly some *unkown* negative results.
You learn something new with these types of failures and move forward, if you can survive the financial hit.
In the world of IT the idea is make it quick and work around the issues later, if possible.
This attitude is historic in the industry and we have accepted it for decades.
The ability to admit this failure by RFA is a continuation of the scientific mind set, you know you got something wrong and are driven to understand what and correct it.
There is no shame in it and it is a step forward in the journey towards their ultimate goal.
The quest for knowledge and truth is simple and direct.
N.B.
Particularly liked the desire to release this info to possibly assist others in the field.
This is also part of the scientific mindset ... you freely share knowledge if you can.
