Charles Moore definitely believes in modifying the original problem so that it fits forth while he modifies forth to fit the problem.
I have used a similar approach when I needed to get a PoC out in 6 weeks, we made it, but not without drastically modifying "the spec". In one instance the PM wanted continuous queries over geospatial data, millions of points and arbitrary locations along with a time dimension. I changed the spec to use 3 buckets, near, medium and far. That feature took 2 hours, the continuous query itself would have taken weeks or longer.
Successful projects have a malleability to them.

This philosophy is often described by 80s lispers. They're not top-down nor bottom-up.. they lie in the middle. Trying to make a comfy intermediate layer so they can experiment various upper layers to fit the problem and adjust if rapidly in case of changes. Similar to IR in compilers I guess.
