Except that most modern development isn't trying to make a Boeing 747 fly. It is trying to meet a goal that works for most people, with enterpeise development even explicitly throwing out "80% rules", etc.

So most developers are just trying to make a 747 taxi to the end of the runway. Or even just sit there without its wings falling off.

We'll get it to fly in the next version.
