I agree that context is missing.
But I can't think of an obvious class of business problems where the database schema for a customer facing system wouldn't be served by working hand in hand with the customer.
But, that is probably due to my cognitive limitations, lack of specific experience, or absence of knowledge regarding the context you are thinking of.
Can you give some context to the sort of problems you are focused on? Thanks.

Following rules, displaying required notifications, enforcing compliance with fines or status changes all comes across to most members of the public as completely byzantine and incomprehensible. All of that needs to start with government officers who understand the related legal landscape.

But in others, the schema is fully hidden behind UIs and canned output (reports, dashboards, ETLs). It never sees sunlight, so many bodies can be buried. Even custom, tailored software often gets deployed as SaaS these days.
