Only because you're reading my posts through 2" rose-colored glbuttes. Most of the experienced developers knew to ignore Bell and his spouts. The IBMesque managers who had been hired didn't; IBM types had been trained to take direction without treading outside their coroporate box. This was not how DEC was used to working at all. What we also saw at that time was 1000 empire builders adding lines to their org charts.

True enough. As one of those customers we hit a wall at eight COBOL programmers online. The 2040 was a joy to work on, compared to the 370-138 it was supposed to...

You keep ignoring the fact that the -20 simply didn't deliver user thruput. We would have dropped the -10 in millisecond if customers had been able to use the -20 for their computing needs. Don't give me this throw memory at the problem. Putting on more memory only helped if you kept the number of users online at a minimum. Customers needed hundreds online at the same time without perceived degradation of service. Customers didn't have the footprint available to keep adding a complete new system every time they had an increase of 40 users.
