You don't get to stay in business in a regulated industry with an attitude like that. What's next? Medical device manufacturers cutting corners because the regulations are too onerous? Regulations create a level playing field: all entrants get to abide by the rules. Or at least, that's how it should be. The FAA turning a blind eye here is as much a part of the problem as Boeing.
