#3 And the world wasn't willing to pay the real cost of the service Kenya was providing?

The bean counters must have been using the Medicare formula in making a determination of what they'll pay versus real costs. The bean counters didn't factor in what the long term cost will be with having to maintain a large navy deployment to keep playing the 'catch and release' program since there is no will to go to the ports and burn them out.

Different accounts, Procopius2k. The ships have running costs anyway, and the sailors need to be trained ongoing. It wouldn't surprise me if that's how the project was originally sold.
