    Anything with a “Foundation” or a “Board of” behind it, seems to get lobbying rights to veto any changes, i.e. to preserve their status quo ;-)

    Supposedly too, you used to be able to commission a “research project” and define it’s scope nice and narrow, and get just the results you’d like to have published to support the “no change”. It does take a lot of money to be able to do this, though.
