Seems that way to me. All that really matters is the presentation. Doing the job and giving correct answers take second place - until users start complaining. Then it's too late. They had build in a slow ramp up so they could adjust and add resources if needed to handle the load. But the leaders, not understanding that and behind schedule, decided to go full bore.
This is not a unique situation. Those doing the work know what should be done, but many leaders, even though they do not, think their judgement is better. But if one wants to sell an app it is necessary that the presentation be great. If it is not, no matter how good the work behind the scenes, it will fail.
