Worthless. Just looks how IFS worked out the previous two times they gave it a go. If you're not in the industry you may not even be aware it was a thing. And then not. Twice.
And how many times did Intel get sued for breach of contract over changing their mind? If they have a contract, they'll honor it or compensate.
And that's why it's got to be a big company that takes this on, you need deep pockets to successfully sue a company like Intel. It's not realistic for most. Plus the huge opportunity cost of missing your market and wasting years having to start over. Again, a bigger company can survive that with multiple projects in parallel.
