Sure, which can be countered with: "no problem, it will add 30% to the estimate".
Unless the % is significant (over 10%), it's not worth the effort.
- sillyquiet 5y agoYep, that's exactly why I keep pushing to drop support. I am as interested as the PM in implementing a feature as efficiently as possible, and when I have to cadge together a js solution for something that's in CSS or, worse, cadge together IE-specific CSS overrides (truth be told, I have to do this for Safari often too), it automatically increases the estimation.
