> The key lesson here, I think, is not “corporations are stupid,” but that “corporations are too complex for linear requirements-gathering to in many cases support.” This comment should be featured higher in a discussion. The "stupid" label is thrown rather fast although more often than not the problem lies in how critics fail to understand the problem and, more importantly, the restrictions applied to the decision-making process. Therefore critics base their view on their personal and very over-simplified and under-informed view of the problem, don't understand how an outcome is a valid and reasonable solution, and instead of assuming that they have limited information and understanding... They instead assume they have perfect information and complete insight into a problem and therefore any outcome they didn't approve or understand can only mean stupidity.
