It’s amazing that this type of systemic business and management incompetence is perpetuated decade after decade.
In virtually every other discipline, humanity makes improvements every year (processes, efficiency, technology, etc.)

What does ETOPS have to do with engine placement on the stab vs. under-wing? I don’t think you answered the question (which is about placement, not quantity).
