This is spot on. Zooming out, a perfectly written implementation that follows all the conventions but misses the mark on its business goal is as, if not more, expensive. I think adding a brief.md artifact to the beginning of the flow (where you store the problem, desired change, primary metric, feature-kill criteria) can go a long way.
