Outcomes-over-outputs is one thing — but even outcomes aren't always impactful.
Investing in any outcome carries opportunity cost. Any effort you expend means not spending that effort elsewhere.

4. Mutual mudslinging starts, as some of the counties that already paid for the project, discover that the New Better Route omits them.
5. In the meantime, the railroad company proceeds with the original plan and doesn't care.
