"I suppose for a lot of basic CRUD/LOB or "enterprisey" stuff, it's important you can take essentially a typist and have them add business rules (like in Wisconsin, if the user is over 50, remove a certain discount)."

Is there really much of that stuff going on? I would have thought they would provide some kind of rules engine to the business rather than hard coding masses of it.
