Not to mention an unscheduled demo. How often do software engineers have a reliably working local state of a repository that they could just start up and demo whenever someone walks by their desk?

Makes sense. The Chinese government will never launch an unscheduled attack. It’s always on my calendar.

One would hope all hiccups are worked out by the time the systems go into production.

Was the system in operational readiness at this point in time? Sounds like it was in the middle of a sales process, based on the fact that you described it as part of the sales process.
