PHYSIX OBSERVATION

Yinghe's collapse was not a technology failure but a rupture in the delivery and payment-collection chain. Funding enthusiasm masked the high costs and difficult acceptance of custom projects. The industry should incorporate acceptance rates, payment cycles, and repurchase rates into core evaluation, rather than looking only at team and orders.
