I can remember in school in my marketing or management class I had to take, we covered how companies like Boeing calculate statistically the potential lives loss compared to cost of safety features and cutting corners. Like there is an actually job that figures if it would be cheaper for safety features x or if it would be more cost efficient if they have like 0.75 planes explode a year.

It's just weird now seeing it actually being revealed in real time to the general public.

But also death to Boeing and death to profiteering scumbags.
