Oh boy, sunk cost fallacy time! They'll now waste millions of dollars to salvage this popularly unwanted nightmare in an effort to make it juuust acceptable to shove it down everyone's throats.

Either that or they'll spend all that money and then pinky-promise that they've made it acceptable, only for all their work to be immediately overcome by bad actors (criminals, corporations, governments, law enforcement, is there even a difference) and be the exact same nightmare anyway.
