Yep, it's all the engineer's fault.
The salesman executive can't be faulted for promising something that just isn't possible, nor can the bean counter accountant be held at fault for taking an engineered design and shaving off pennies so the company can save $30,000 over the production life of the model. The risk-averse mid-level managers can't be faulted if they turn back the engineering work again and again and again until said work meets the approval of the multi-legged but empty-brained lifeform - known as the committee. Certainly, the big-wigs can't be faulted for lobbying the government to install oh-so-needed safety and emissions regulations that, gee, their company can somehow attain fairly easily while raising the bar impossibly high for start-ups.
Yup, it's all the engineers' fault.
