And again, the point of the article is not how it was done, but who was first.

Huh, indeed.

And Dick Brass' article was a great read, but I had no idea about that kind of internal sabotages, that's messed up.

That's quite literally the nature of bureaucracies.  Government agencies do it to eachother all of the time, too.  Interservice rivalry has even led to missions being blown before (at least for the US and its multiple branches).  The nation's security is trivial compared to the prestige of the agency you work for, and the company's profit margin is trivial compared to the prominance of your division.
