Cause of death: the autopsy

A big US food mandate, but Congress pushed compliance to 2028-07-20, so buyers will wait. The food-manufacturing ERP version scored 58 out of 100 and traceability was listed as a trap.

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.
