Regarding budget, the proof is in Staggs' own words:
“Certain things have taken longer to make broadly available than we initially would have liked, but our rollout was designed to be flexible to ensure that the guest experience was always our first priority.”
Anyone who has managed a multimillion dollar budget knows that delays result in overruns.
Besides, I've been guilty of saying that a program is within
(its current) budget, never mind that it grossly overran its first two budgets. It all depends on how you define budget.
