I'm sure at least a few designees of the developer (or even a family members themselves?) are members here and read TOTV.
Since I believe they are motivated purely by their own self interest, I wouldn't expect all of those here who have felt (rightfully) betrayed to get any honest answers...but it sure would be nice if the developer's rep's had the guts to come here and start explaining.
I know, I know, wishful thinking at best.
