Cause of death: the autopsy

The probe showed 12 of 25 graded page-and-law pairs were wrong, but a public scoreboard has no buyer and carries reputational risk from naming competitors. Scored 1 of 5.

The numbers

None. It was never built, so there are no visitors, sales or ad spend to count. It died on paper, which is the cheapest place to die.

Could rise again if

The report left no way back.
