illustrate.
Reflect on the ethical concerns in this case in regard to how they inform your own personal moral code as an engineering manager. How would
you weigh the costs and benefits of the opposing values in this case? Illustrate with specific examples.
Referring to your analysis, characterize the overall health of the existing project: Is it a well-functioning system? Why or why not? Defend your
position with specific evidence.
