Did you know...
How did bees change and adapt to become hornets and wasps?
You have it backwards. Wasps somewhat similar to hornets evolved before bees. Bees evolved from these wasps. A bee is basically a wasp that eats pollen instead of meat.
Bees evolved from wasps sometime in the early Cretaceous period or maybe the late Jurassic period. Wasps in a particularly pollen rich region (?) evolved thick hair that caught more pollen. The hair made the new species of wasp unable to catch the small insects their ancestors ate. However, pollen sticks to hair. So the greater amount of hair enabled the wasp to collect more pollen. So the new species of wasp were able to live on pollen instead of small insects. This hairy wasp is what we now call a bee.

Sadly it seems as the focus of the press has switched from Wasps to Worcester warriors with the latter making some wasp like moves - training grounds sold to
A new company , car park purchased by the owners ! Even Worcester apparently have done means to get out of their position so I don’t see Wasps caving anytime soon sadly

They don't need to cave, they just need to want out.
It all depends on the bondholders response to Wasps revised plan to, presumably, extend the repayment deadline whilst they pursue alternative financing options. Given the trajectory of interest rates, refinancing is only going to get more expensive. Given the inflation trajectory, there is the possibility that attendances will be further reduced as local support is in the minority - making affordability of refinancing more tricky.
The plan is supposed to be published in August. Bondholders are already anxious and if there is a delay they will only become more so.

According to same source in the discussions they have had they believe that Wasps could not do anything in the sense of entering into admin until the league had released the fixtures due to a technicality in the RFU sporting regulations IF thats the assumption. If you enter an admin before fixture release you get relegated if its after its a 35 point deduction and no relegation. As MalcSB has already said this is about what the bond holders want to do as they are the ones that are in a position to act, forget Worcester.
