Quite apart from the design and implementation failures, the ABS failed
to follow some pretty basic rules:

- if you know nothing, SAY nothing
- don't theorise in front of the customer
- have a Plan B

Plan B should IMHO have been some kind of rain check - shut it down,
apologise, run it next year with lessons learned.

Not this endlessly unfolding train wreck.

Regards, K.
