I think that DeMarco is wrong about that already in the corporate world. The budgets and schedules that I work with are organised around knowing what is going to arrive when, crudely 10x -> 5x means that 5x is not available for the next round of projects, which means that 5 projects get canned. Any project running 2x will result in a big change of "staff responsibility" basically because no one trusts anyone involved any more.
