I wouldn’t put it past any of the large chip manufacturers. I work in the electronics industry and I see what passes for decision making in a highly regulated environment. I’ve also worked for other companies that weren’t as regulated.
Most of the time you will see management looking out for management and doing things that have the immediate impact of making management look good, but are or no benefit (usually a detriment) long term.
About a decade or two ago, I saw a remark in an electronics trade magazine that Intel's success was dependent on the ability of its engineers to override management.
