Er, let's go back to the original statement:

The only dun on the "tool makers" is they can't do 'something' because of
their limited capabilities. No one said they're lazy or knaves or
schmucks, etc. Perhaps incompetency was implied, but that includes the
case wherein the order of magnitude of difficulty is so great, the goal
simply cannot be accomplished. I'm not saying such are the facts in this
instance, but it is one possibility.

So of the 3 options you proposed, I'd say number 2 is the item that fits
the poop best.
