That's fine, doesn't disprove my point.
If a contract is suddenly canceled for reasons beyond the contractor's control, the next RFQ will either be a decline to bid, or a bid with a higher markup.  The Feds may be able to dictate their contract terms, but they usually don't get to dictate their prices.
