Lots of people will question this stuff, but they definitely won't bring up their objections. People are incentivized to collect their paychecks and do what they're told, not to point out the absurd thinking of the managers and executives above them. Nobody is thinking they'll save their company those millions and get an recognition/reward for it. Even the professional risk assessors got ignored.

I'm not really that cynical. But a lot of people do have their jobs to do, may even appreciate that they may not be aware of all the context fo some given decision, and just aren't inclined to fight battles over things that aren't their department at the end of the day.
