It's almost like your question answers itself. When something is too pat like that my BS detector goes off the charts.
So how many of these 'disputes' have been manufactured out of nothing by what CN called 'ugly tactics' or words of that import? I ask because what we are asked to believe is simply not credible. For FAR management to 'miss' the deadline for DJ would be like Churchill failing to ask how North Africa was going for all of 1943, because it slipped his mind and he was distracted by the Eastern Front. Anyone who has run a business of any size would know that every business critical issue, every hot spot, every major project is discussed daily by the responsible executives.
