In my experience a well reasoned and methodical "that won't work" is far less common than plain old grumbling. The cliche of the curmudgeon developer exists for a reason. There are a lot of people who default to picking holes in any plan. They don't acknowledge the times they were wrong (and the project succeeded) or the fact that complaining about a solution doesn't actually help the problem get solved.
