It’s because the finance chucklefucks ran the numbers, saw data that indicated simply paying out injury and wrongful death settlements and safety penalties appeared to be cheaper than designing a new airframe, and went that route. It’s very literally all a numbers game, and the only numbers that really matter to these idiots are the ones with $ in the front.
I just watched Fight Club again, and this was literally Ed Norton’s character’s job.

If the number for the recall or redesign is higher than the lawsuits, they don’t do it. They let people die.
The only way to fight it is to have an automatic adjustment to all unit and wrongful death payouts times 10, hell 1000. There should be no cost on a human life.
lol I gotta watch that again
