I believe I addressed that already, thanks, in terms of orders being cancelled, or likely to be. It is one thing "to question it" and about 450 pages later I don't see what is going on as "question it" but something else entirely. Glue manufacture, mostly. What I find the most disappointing, is the software piece. This aircraft seems to be more software dependent, not less. I suspect that this will amplify problems in configuration and deployment.
Given what I was doing about a decade and a half ago related to a program that DID get cancelled, and the software challenges there, maybe I should not be surprised/disappointed.
