Why? The mere fact he was asking himself those questions show that he's conscientious.

Also as long as he delivers in time (even if he doesn't believe it possible), why would this opinion be a problem?

Let down someone for his opinion is never a right thing. I believe it was a political decision, but ethically (and maybe economically in the long term) a very wrong one.
