Wow, that is a great trail of breadcrumbs. I used to work in another industry with that painful tension between marketing and development, what the author says about the total lack of interest in safety from marketing was very real in the line I was in. I worked in a function that kind of sat between the two and marketing were always coming back boozed after celebrating securing a massive sale where all development had to do was make a widget that was 10% smaller, 10% more powerful and 10% cheaper than the best the competitors to offer in order to sell millions. Needless to say, the whole huge company collapsed and was sold off a few years after I left (not because I left but because of the massive disconnect between marketing and development - it's simply not sustainable).
