Eh, lets add "For a time"

In my experience it tends to work like this. New feature is added. Client tests it and it works great. Client has a few more subrequests to make the feature excellent for them that take a month or two to implement. In the meantime huge amounts of data are building up in the database. The even newer features get implemented and suddenly the customer system explodes in a ball of fire. Turns out they are taking those new features and doing things you never expected with other existing features and now your system isn't performant enough. Now the entire process of adding new features for other clients has stopped as 'redneck architect' the system to a point it doesn't fall over, all while the customer is pissed.
