Breaking some of that down:

Cracker announced as a duster very shortly after the CR - Is he expected to have known or somehow had Cracker deliver better results? How else would you approach the otherwise known requirement of a CR... which comes regardless of exploration results.

Nomgon go slow campaign for nearly a year Daydream set up - I highly doubt they expected it to take this long, infact I'm sure they didn't... but that is exploration. Daydream was opportunistic - taking a shot at a safer juristriction whereby he and the team have a strong knowledge base. Had he not done this... what would you be saying?

Informative vaccumes until it's just assumed the flowtest at Nomgon was a dud - Is it a dud? based on historical evidence of most gas exploration, is it a dud?

I don't disagree that we should be frustrated but I think some of these conclusions drawn are a tad harsh.

4 years ago we were what, 0.4c?
