You deny reality.
You don't get to define reality, just your own opinion. Stop being an ass.
I saw with my own eyes that there was some probing about possibly changing that design decision while it was still early enough to do so, and I saw rpietila (and animorex) weigh on it, also saw them weigh in on Zoid, etc..
How did this happen when neither rpietila nor aminorex were even aware of the project when these issues were being discussed? I don't know the timeline with aminorex exactly, but I'm telling you factually and specifically that rpietila's involvement dates to roughly a month after the only time these issues have ever been seriously considered.
If it worked the way you describe, then at least
some changes would have been made by now as a result of pressure or demands from investors. Identify one.
As for "weighing in on Zoid," I fail to see what that has to do with anything. They are free to comment on anything or anyone they like, as are you or me.
Sorry I don't believe this.
