I am glad I read this just now, I was jumping from hoop to hoop. and not only hoops but craft paradigms, reminds me of the Fred Brooks idea "There is no silver bullet".
Brooks argues that "there is no single development, in either technology or management technique, which by itself promises even one order of magnitude [tenfold] improvement within a decade in productivity, in reliability, in simplicity." He also states that "we cannot expect ever to see two-fold gains every two years" in software development, as there is in hardware development (Moore's law)
