I don't know. I see it a different way. Lots of lessons were learned following Challenger. And, these launches are extremely complicated...so couple that with lack of tolerance on the part of the general public for failure in such a high-visibility event and I don't blame them for caution at all.
I was directly involved in probably 30+ Shuttle flights and spent a lot time at KSC dealing with launch delays and the ramifications, so I've BTDT. You won't find many bumbling buffoons down there. IMHO.
