> What surprises me is that it took this long to kill the product

Maybe I'm misremembering, but I seem to recall that it was killed once before?

It’s been scaled down and then back up, never fully shut down.

It's been killed, restarted, scaled down, scaled up about every 9 months for the past 10 years.

I expect news to say that the project has been restarted, with smaller scope, by the end of the year.

I think the Apple car has been killed maybe 10 times or more in the last decade.
