I think it got cancelled because it is a real startup now.

Let me explain! Put yourself in CEO's shoes: you have employees who love working for you but you need to get them a paycheck. From that perspective, it is easy to see that it is kind of crazy to enter into these lengthy government discussions that could possibly ruin your business and delay the entire industry! No thanks!!

If they're all really engineers who just love doin' the work, they will be a valuable contracting outfit doin' the exact same work for a steadier paycheck.

What? Refusing to cooperate with the government in a highly regulated industry will 'ruin your business' anyway.
