You apparently count high managers of the project along with real designers.
Actually there are no signs that real designers were even asked about the
matter. All we know is that some high managers of the project decided that
the SRI from Ariane 4 will be used for Ariane 5 without any change. Yes, those
managers apparently believed that it would work, and this implies only that
they think of SRI as of a commodity, something like a tourist's compass, but
perhaps bigger and certainly much more expensive.

Well, just because you can drive you car from your house to the supermarket,
you have no reason to believe that you can drive my heavy truck from your
house to the video store. You may only *hope* that you can.
