I wasn’t especially feeling mournful for the billionaire guy who ignored ALL the engineers. I do lament that his son who didn’t want to go in the first place was effectively coerced into joining the trip. As an experimental design, the guy could have gone by himself to test it, if a remote controlled operation wasn’t an option. But no, his ego led to the death of his son and some hapless people who were also tricked.
