If you can't deal with the facts, go ad hominem...

In fact the third google hit for "fully custom asic" on the entire interweb is BFL which ought to be a hint that it is a contortion of the usual industry terminology...

Emphasis mine. (Google "Fully Custom ASIC"

The thread about BFL is still the third hit, more than a month after I wrote that; see screenshot below taken 29-Nov-2012 at 4:46pm PDT. The second hit is also BFL-related but was started by somebody else, which still supports my statement that "fully custom" is a BFL-ism. The butterflylabs.com website has apparently dropped down to #5 since I wrote that.

I'm glad you've started using less ambiguous terminology since then. However I fear that with the latest post by Nasser that progress might be being undone Seriously, it just doesn't add up on several different levels, which is why I'm poking fun at it. If Nasser posts real, self-consistent, credible details on what went wrong with the first mask set and what the plan for the respin is, I'll gladly switch my avatar back. But I can't blame you for not wanting to give out that much information.

I've never heard of these Kromek people before (they seem to be more of an imaging company than a chip design company) and the Boeing hit is a typo since it's the only occurrence of "fully custom" anywhere on boeing.com.
