In 1999, after spending $125 million dollars and years of work, a NASA rover deployed on Mars burned up and failed. After an investigation, NASA determined that the failure was due to engineers neglecting to convert metric measurements to the American system. This type of failure can BEST be described as what type of mistake?

The mistake in not converting metric measurements to the American system which led to the failure of the NASA rover can be BEST described as a "lack of professional standards."
