Hey let's design looking backwards and ignore all future needs. Everyone will be happy. Because they all are about saving face and give minimum effort, enough to keep things working as is. It doesn't matter if it sacrifices future opportunities nobody can test that. Then it will be just a matter of fact. We will all just pretend this was unavoidable inherent complexity. Imagine playing competitive RTS game and decisions were made with this attitude, tomorrow-not-my-problem as others don't have domain expertise to tell otherwise or they don't simply care to put themselves as opposing force and do your work to find better solution. In game you'd be doing seemingly ok and then get destroyed all of the sudden.
