No, they didn’t “make a mistake;” they made a calculated financial decision. And it should never have been only a “recommendation” to begin with. The safety agency should have been empowered from the beginning to shut it down until corrections were made. nytimes.com/2021/05/05/busin…

This is what is meant by “agency capture.”Safety agencies overseeing products, food etc. have been consistently disempowered over last few decades. They can only make polite “recommendations,” w/ less power now to actually take things off the shelves - & people die because of it.
