I think equally significant is that "The board has signed off on an expansion plan to take the team up to the limits imposed by the Resource Restriction Agreement". Significant in that it shows that so far Mercedes has been funding the team below that level.

Doesn't 2009 prove that the team has (or had) sufficiently smart people, given enough resources? I know Honda spent unprecedented amounts of money, but Toyota proved that huge budgets alone can't make you a championship contender. You still need the right people.
