What if it was a form of damage control, where they could claim in the future at lawsuits that they had total transparency at the time of the event.
Please, I'm kidding. But it would be interesting.
If it were true, you might buy there once, but it will always leave a bitter taste. So not sure if it would be good advertising if you never go there again.
I imagine it started with some sub-installations actually giving approximations that were acceptable and summed up, but then some finalizing was not taken into account or something needed to be added after the other processes are finished, and the deadline was close. That last part builds up over time with other quick additions and some annoying stuff that is actually quite performance heavy and not easy to incorporate through the whole installation. "Let's do it at the end as well."
No time / budget to change the 100% to 99% as they have to adjust calculations based on the processes that actually do a good job. Although a display change could fake it, priorities are elsewhere.
I've tried to find sources for this, but all lead into a circle of people just saying this without providing an actual verifiable link or anything.
Edit: This comment from someone was the closest I got: https://lemmy.world/comment/11189733
Thanks for coming back to us with this, the clarification regarding the confusion as well is much appreciated.
Please add your sources for this. I can only find people saying the same thing but all without sources. Some claim it's everywhere on the socials.. Which does not qualify as more than gossip for now.
