IMO, there would have been engineers and even some of the management chain who knew these risks, but for whatever reason, would have been pressured to make this go away. It seems like a conspiracist thing to say, but I've seen this in software engineering for years. There are heaps of perfectly legitimate pressures which will result in reduced quality and cutting of corners.. just in my work, lives are not at risk.
