Well the review board found that senior executives failed in their responsibilities and had no project insight (but remain today), so on that part you are correct, but they also found that the actual engineers were understaffed and underpaid in face of aggressive hiring from space startups. The solution they propose, of course, is to cancel remote work, the root of all problems when the worker bees won't budge.


That is bias on your part. The review also found that lack of informal communication was a factor and recommended minimizing remote and hybrid work.

but who's job is it to make sure that communication is happening, again; and to structure the workplace or culture so that happens? Mostly the bosses.


that part definitely stood out to me as well. I mean, clearly there are some parts of spacecraft / mission design that are best done in person, but the recommendations of the IRB definitely won't help the staffing issues.
