If they finish the product, they have to get it to a state where it will actually survive public reviews. It would also need to be able to hold player attention over longer times.
I don't think they are capable of getting it to that kind of state, never mind a state that warrants over 1 billion in early access income.
Roberts career would be over and he'd be without income.
They are never releasing this. That would be stupid.

It definitely doesn't help that they are making design decisions that are completely counter intuitive to each other. They plan on implementing player owned space stations and I'd assume that opposing player Orgs would want to fight each other over these stations, and at the same time they are planning their fuckin retarded "Death of a space man" idea where your character will permanently die and is replaced by a clone or child or whatever and you lose most of your money to inheritance tax. In the current build of the game it's super easy to get blown up in combat or just accidentally bumping something with your ship. Can't possibly imagine why they would build this game with all these cool combat ships etc and then completely discourage any kind of combat via permadeath and taxes.

The design decisions are not made based on the notion "how do we deliver a great product", but on "how do we keep the goose with the golden eggs alive as long as we can".
Unsure how that isn't clear to anyone looking at this thing rationally.

I feel like their design decisions are based around "is this tedious and anti fun?", and that's how they come up with bullshit like engineering, so now if I wanna take my Polaris out, or anything with more than one seat really, I have to recruit some goof to sit in the ass of the ship with a repair gun waiting for shit to break, he won't see space/planets/asteroids/combat, just sits down there looking at a screen waiting to see which component needs to be repaired.

Oh it's very real, and worse than I originally described because I forgot to mention you also have to keep a fire extinguisher handy because fire will spread like your metal ship is made out of fuckin dry hay.

So, a ship that flies through space and is capable of space combat does not have some sort of automatic fire suppression? The best they can do is guy in the back running around with a fire extinguisher...that's just great lmao.

There's a multitude of stupid shit they put in / leave out, like food and drink as if this is some kind of survival game, which will of course tie in to the future hygiene/poop features (yes really), and lets not forget these futuristic ships that shoot lasers and have shields that somehow don't have fire suppression, also lack any form of auto pilot, so if you plan on going somewhere with multiple jump points on the journey, your ass has to sit there and manually align the ship and click each and every one of those points.
