Tech,...you have been working these streets for a while. This started mid December, 2020...four months later...We had "approval is out of the question" mandated by someone who watches too much soap opera...and a PhD in Mechanical Engineering holding the reins...possible reason then...
perhaps something to consider at this point in time...after the money starts to flow.
Power in the wrong hands is dangerous...It attracts the worst...and can corrupt the best, and historically...We have plenty of evidence for that.
