I am surprised what has happened with ethereum. why it is postponed the upgrade. It was first postponed to 19th January and now February. It is not the professional way to handle this.

this is not only a professional problem or not, but the postponed out of hardfork ethereum is caused by third parties or chainsecurity who find potential problems that will occur in the ethereum ecosystem, if the ethereum core developer continues the constantinople hardfork at that time. you can read the reason here
