Interesting! I've been guilty of bashing fixed price projects and not getting involved in that gig, but it sounds like you can learn an awful lot from seeing the mistakes and problems.
I love how you focus on "play the game you're playing" in this post. I'm skeptical that true agile ideas (versus Agile processes) couldn't help a FPP but hey - I've never seen it done well, so maybe not!
I've never understood companies that don't keep the team responsible for the delivery fully informed about the costs they're incurring and the margins. Without all the information they cannot optimise the for the desired outcome.

I don't know how anyone does fixed price projects. It's impossible.
