Yeah, production runs for vehicles, movie release dates, video game release dates, software developments, mobile technology, computer software, website launch dates, clothing line launch dates, and so on never get delayed! In fact, I can name about ten separate occasions where both Apple and Microsoft delayed upcoming developments; they are both large, and incredibly well known companies in an expansive industry.
Haha, mostly just kidding with you, but delayed releases are a fairly ubiquitous phenomenon in business. The more complex and larger the supply chain, the more 'cogs' in the wheel so to speak. At times, a single unforeseeable cog can delay the progress of the entire movement. The point is, it was not a deliberate move to say we were going to release ****, and then not release ****.
