Congrats Dave on the millenium post.

"as a non expert I had an advantage because I could look at a problem from different angles because I just did not know it was possible"
Four years later she still does not know it is not possible or is she continuing because of loss of face ?
It's got to be latter.
She simply
must know that it can't work as intended.
It's been 5 years, 10's of millions of dollars, she had the best ultrasound experts in the world working for her (sorry,
with her), and all she has to show for it is a huge brick with hobby level tracking technology that charges a phone under ideal conditions at the most hideous efficiency and expense.
The desperation in her voice of trying to justify it away that they have "won" the critic war is clear in the latest interviews
Now almost everyone has left (all of the experts have), she has literally a huge new building that is empty, and her former VP of engineering is publicly ripping her a new one on why it will never work. She knows the end game now, but her only option will be to persevere until it all goes tits-up or the investors are finally able to throw her out and sell what's left of the tech and/or pivot it.
She
needs to be either proven right (won't happen of course), or she needs to go down trying so she can blame everything and everyone but the stupidity of the entire concept.
