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.
This is not news. When you work on a product you are often far more aware of what's wrong than anyone outside. You also have a fix for everything lined up. The issue is that your competitors may have much less to fix and need less time than you and your product will fail to get out the door before theirs does or be worse when it does.

If your management realise this then they will try to get out of an inevitably losing position, cancel the product before they expose themselves to even bigger losses.

This is a different situation. We the customers sit here and absorb *all* the screwups, endlessly.
