In a reasonable world, yes. In a world where IT is a cost center, this is what happens: 1) People work around it as much as possible. 2) When the pain is unbearable, you bring in a high-priced consultant, because your engineers say something about "recompile" and "refactor". Which you as VP don't understand, are scared of, and are not willing to spend the money on. 3) The consultant puts in a week or so to hack things together. It's much cheaper than the recompile/refactor thing, and so you as VP are a hero to your bosses. 4) Since the consultant is paid hourly, documentation seems kind of pricey. Let's skip that. 5) Lather. Rinse. Repeat. I wish this was just Dilbert, but in quite a few companies, that's reality.
