Well, discovered (late) in flight testing might be part of the reason why it wasnt built with redundacy. Better reliable and redundant programming obviousIy take more time than simple basic programming, and even more so when one includes the increased testing necessary on a more complicated piece of software. Dont know, but maybe it is requiring quite a bit of programming just to get the other AoA vane into the loop?
