It sounds like Google needs to work on their track record, methinks. Why should we talk about and venerate this tech if it's never going to have a chance due to probable cancellation? Can anyone inside or outside Google guarantee that the owner of this product isn't going to dump it as soon as it's ready for commercialization to start a new project for their career enhancement? I have not seen a single Google exec take on the hard question of "Why does Google cancel stuff so much? How can we trust you?" and answer it, or even try to answer it. All we have is their track record of shuttering products!!

It's exhausting trying to have a good-faith discussion with someone you know is an unfaithful actor. We get all excited about some new stuff Google develops, then months or years later it evaporates with zero support and no warning.
