Really good article.
This comes as close to perfectly capturing my dismay and horror at the devolution of Boeing in the last few decades, as well as describing a level of rigor that I deeply wish was far more prevalent in engineering as a general practice across all industries these days. But “driving shareholder value” (thanks for that, Milton Friedman) is crushing one of the primary aspects that I think made American engineering so outstanding for so long.

This was a spectacular read. Consumable even with no engineering background.
Really well done.
