I am not going to try to come up with an underlying reason but he's really poisoned his reputation in my book. How can you so emphatically jump into a problem space that (in hindsight) you're not an expert at and then manage to distance yourself so vigorously from your failure like a month later? What am I supposed to think when you're faced with a real world hundreds-of-millions-of-dollars project spanning tons of large, complex industries? How am I supposed to believe you'll have better success with this than a few thousand lines of JavaScript?
