      Hmm, i think lah, considering Kurzgesagt need 1200 working hours(around 5 months) to make one of their video from researching to planning to animating, investigating a disaster like this, especially since there’s no record like a blackbox to determine the cause, it mean they need to take a lot of educated guesses. Then they have to went through review and study and review and study, then there’s also a red tape so nothing leaks out.

      A wrong accusation or an accusation that doesn’t have really solid proof from official source can cause a lot of damage, so yeah i think that’s why it take so long.

        Make sense. I thought they’ve buried this due to how quiet it was.
