This reporting is basically dishonest. The execs are not confused. They knew this was likely to occur, because we all told them so.
Now, you can argue that they hoped otherwise, that they were being ridiculously optimistic. But to argue that they didn't expect it is simply unbelievable.
In my experience if there's one thing that executives excel at, it is not managing to hear people saying something inconvenient to their world view.
