Worked for them. Corporations with many brands in their portfolio might discuss for weeks over price differences of components of 0.20 Euro. That‘s twenty Euro cents difference for e.g. a USB connector. If you expect that a vehicle platform sells in the 10s of millions over its lifetime, you‘re talking real money very quick!
yet another example of the flawed logic where "we don't have time/money to do it right now, yet we always seem to find the time/money to redo it later after the shit hits the fan"
