Being a "failure" means it fails to meet its success criteria.
If you claim 10x and deliver 3x, that is a failure. The 3x may still be impressive or a gamechanger or ..., but it still falls short of its promises.
10x is a marketing gimmick in development, AI and pretty much everywhere
So what? Who cares about such a binary claims?
People making decisions.
Pay me 8x to get 10x, great. Pay me 8x to get 3x, nope.
I have not seen reasonable claims that people are paying 8x the salary of a SWE to get those 2-3x results.
