Dr Gilmore is simply, and effectively, "doing his job", holding to account the various operational metrics of the Program; he is documenting (for the public record) all the shortcomings at the time of writing each report. On the other hand, the JPO are well aware of these shortcomings prior to Gilmore putting pen to paper. Indeed, the report is useful in the procurement process as it helps to force issue resolution where stagnation occurs on some of the highlighted issues. Most of the fixes already have a path to resolution when he writes, but he still has to document it - then it appears (outwardly) that there is no fix to the public when they read it, out of context, and in isolation from knowing what is going on inside the Program.
That's Morten's point and he's trying to do so in a way to help the wider audience understand. I shouldn't have to tell you that he's not a "shill", or a corporate talking head, but I will. If he didn't believe the stuff coming out of his own mouth, in his own words, he wouldn't write anything and would stay quiet.
