Meanwhile it would have cost $$ for both the downtime and repair cost to fix the issue before failure. Now that it failed it will cost $$$$$ to fix it as an emergency.

Refuse to schedule maintenance and your equipment will schedule it for you.

Yeah but the top boss's friend owns a manufacturing company, not a repair company, so this policy comes from the top

Not to mention injury/death when the equipment catastrophically fails.

True, but sometimes the cost to repair the thing is irrelevant when the required amount of “done” is what is time gated.
