Good points and points four and five are the most difficult as crunch can be subjective and no one likes to admit failure, personal or otherwise. Most devs I've worked with have been professional, and as long as there was some light at the end of the tunnel such as ...

Well any major publisher that made investments in technology or operations that downsized had to be careful in assessing the layoff.

That's the risk of bumping title's ship dates as operating costs and extended budgets don't have a sales figure to be balanced against. Then there's the loss of any planned for gap or non-competition title opening as you can shift to a release date where one or more titles get ...
