Reading between the lines, it
seems most likely that the GAU-12/U did not meet the original
requirements, but when the costs of the BK 27 became an issue, L-M
revisted the requirements and "balanced" them to allow the GAU-12/U to
compete. Or am I just too cynical about the way things work?

In other words, the GAU-12 cost a little bit more at the start (before
the Mauser cost inflations got out of hand), and when the Mauser started
getting really expensive, the GAU-12 could win.
