👉 Stopped engineering refers to a situation where a project or initiative is halted prematurely, often due to unforeseen challenges, resource constraints, or changes in priorities that render the project no longer viable or beneficial. This can happen at any stage, from conception to execution, and is characterized by a lack of forward momentum or a decision to cease further development. Unlike iterative or adaptive engineering, where adjustments are made as the project progresses, stopped engineering involves a more abrupt and definitive end, often leaving behind significant investment, time, and effort without a clear path to recovery or continuation.
