It really feels like they developed a revenue stream prior to developing a product.

That's what everyone big and well bribed in with regulators and such does today.

This is obviously true.

Not that a commercial company shouldn't do that.

It's just - what exactly are they going to sell? What need are they going to fulfill, what bottleneck are they going to widen, what river cross with a bridge? For customers, of course.
