    It's messed up because they tried to do something too ambitious in too short a time. My instructor for an android development class was teaching a group of graduate students in a previous semester who all agreed to collectively build a video game for their class project. Long story short, what they were able to accomplish and what they had envisioned were two entirely different things. The housing is a good example of how that looks when a team of professionals run into the same problem. The primary difference being their's actually functions with unintended consequences whereas a group of students will be lucky to have something running at all. It's an idea that needed more time and testing than what was given.
