Does it require more from the developer? Yes! Is there more stress? Yes. Does the developer get paid more for more work? No! Does the company have to hire more skilled people to develop? Yes. Is that really going to happen and this is going to work? I'll leave that up to you to answer.

We have to remember the conversation about You can have things fast good or cheap but you have to pick just two. You do not get all three. That isn't going to happen. So this rapid development and deployment technique requires the code to be developed fast, and the user requires that it be good or excellent.

So Fast + Good/Excellent = Expensive.

Now management and the company shareholders want things cheap. This helps build a better bottom line. So their approach is to make it Fast and Cheap. And Fast + Cheap = Inferior.

So where does that leave us. Hard question on a Friday!
