People would have been complaining about a delay if they had gone that way. I personally like how they handled a no win situation.
delays would disappoint people but at least keep your reputation intact. Plus, it makes crunch for devs less likely since deadlines aren't permanent
Delaying also means that you are burning cash with zero income. You can only borrow money on worse and worse terms, and if there is an actual prime rate hike whoa boy are you pooched.
