BP shaved $500,000 off its overhead by deploying a blowout preventer without a remote-control trigger

A fact which has no relevance to the current leak. A 2nd remote trigger wouldn't have done anything that the deadman switch didn't do. Even sending robots down to trigger it locally failed to work. The problem was it seems not a signal problem.
