Honest question: have you ever looked into Kaizen and lean

stopping everything in Phobos and waiting for "breakthroughs"

much more viable, realistic, and likely to produce good
results.
This is not true. There are many development methodologies and
most of them are not suitable for designing programming
languages, including all "lean" methodologies.
Kaizen just means continuous improvement. My Dad is an industrial
engineer and talked about it all the time growing up. I really
can't even fathom why anyone would be opposed to it...
Lean is a broader concept and may not necessarily be a good fit.
