It’s always really easy to armchair criticize using versions of, “why weren’t you prepared for every contingency at all times?” And I see versions of that in the comments. Supply chain is really really really hard. Keeping it warm for decades is really really really expensive. Especially if you’re not churning out 50 million of something every year.
Though I imagine there are valid criticisms if we had all the details. “They didn’t think to preserve X specimens.” “Y software was lost on a tape drive somewhere.” “Z blueprints got improperly stored inside the Ark of the Covenant.”
