No it was because the Bomber Barons couldn't see past their noses.

How many bombs land on the target if the B-17 is shot down? At least with 3 Mossies carrying the same load, some bombs would land on the target even if 1 or 2 were shot down.
Wow! It really looks like you've researched this topic and thought through every aspect of the problems associated with it. It's refreshing to see a logical well thought out statement of fact.

I think we need to invent a time a machine and send you back to the 1939 so the Allies could win the war before Christmas and save the world a lot of grief.
