Well, we all know why that is the case: uncertainty. If I pay $100k for a thing, I'm actually paying $100k for a chance at the thing by the date. Most likely, I'm going to end up paying 2x for the thing by 2x the time. Happens everywhere.
And that's not because the guy making it is shit. It's because while he's making it, the market is moving and I'm watching it, and when it moves enough I have to come over to him and tell him to change things.
That's why slow, costly things overrun by more and are later. It's because the world changes, and fast+cheap things are superior because even if they're worse, they exist and can therefore be changed to what the world is.
