Correct.

14 years of development does not imply good or efficient. There's no secret about it, keeping it on permanent development gives them a job for as long as they can keep the grift going. You're implying everyone thinks the game is good, worthwhile or innovative, I do not agree on most of those points. That said again both things can be true.

No, you've added your opinion and tried to pass it off as objective fact.

It doesn't need to be that deep, it's just fraud with a fan base which could be said of a lot of games just none this expensive or developed as long.
