I wouldn't say they shrugged, they tried but this stuff is hard. It was an engineering failure. Though engineering failures are often caused by organizational failures.

Not just engineering. I listened to an earning's call once. The CFO or someone in that area was claiming that "14nm was the most profitable process ever!". My thought was "well yes, it's also the most long lived process. I'd hope you haven't been operating at a loss for all these years"
