I don't think there will be a 'downfall' to BFL. I think they will achieve everything they set out to achieve and probably more than they expected to.
Your statement above is already a fail.
They missed their October, Nov, Dec ... April dates for shipping.
They missed their specs. Mini Rig has no real solution (their supposed cases are too small)
just to name a few things they set out to achieve and failed.
So no your expectations are already in the clouds and unrealistic when it comes to BFL.
Plain and simple.
Best part about this are the many many cases they are bought for the asics i know some picture with a warehouse with 40 - 50 cases ^^
