I have no idea why they decided their 1" enthusiast compact line was dead before it hit the shelves.
Probably because projected sales revenue minus money spent on research and extended development was looking to be a big negative. Plus they decided to storm in to the arena all guns blazing with a broad range of 3 high performance models, one having an exceptionally wide angle zoom lens, no working up of the range gradually like the rest. Plus they probably just could not get the technology sorted within the means available to them especially after processor design problems meant a years extension of the project. Just because you want to do something does not mean you can within the available budget.
I think it was a bit of a do or die project in that they had to get it all going at once from scratch being late in the market and luck and fortune and reality was against them.
