On Design Freeze, they may declare an "Initial Design Freeze" before going to clinicals, and if clinical trials determine any changes are merited, they tweak the design and declare a final Design Freeze. Most of the changes, if minor, can usually be analyzed for potential impact on clinical test results and regression testing of just the changes can be fairly minimal. Or clinicals run beautifully and they determine no change needed!

As for the Medrobotics break-in scandal... Does anyone remember the original "The Love Bug" movie, where the Chinese dealer ends up owning Herbie and works diligently behind the scenes to ensure it doesn't lose? I can picture a group of Chinese guys in gray sweatsuits carrying the car out of the mud on long wooden poles, like carrying a patient on a giant stretcher. Naturally, the protagonist eventually won.
