Hard Truths
Product-market fit simply isn't thought about, most certainly not efficiency and working at scale (see: $1 vending machine that dispenses $100 doesn't have product-market fit).
People always have want to develop something new, without thinking of the long tail that's involved with maintaining something you developed.
No one is incentivized to terminate their projects/products even if poorly performing, because it means they lose MMF, lose funding, lose appraisal work achievements.
