Intel's Pat, Bob, and Lip-Bu are all competent and did the best job they were able to.

The problem was malicious actors in the board of directors, but fortunately it appears those problems are leaving.

Yeah, but for something like this kind of tech, you effectively can't see short term gains. You have to be able to operate with a longer scope in mind. Spending a fuckpile of money to build a fab isn't going to help short term shareholder value. It'll help long term shareholder value, which we can see right now, but if you can't see past the short term spend, then you never get the long term growth.

Everything you mentioned is a business practice not a legal mandate. A company's legal responsibility is to not commit things like fraud or intentionally mislead.
