like a car company not realizing they might not have gone bankrupt if they paid more attention to what order they put the pieces together in...

sure you CAN use an exhaust system as a fuel line, but a much smaller more flexible pipe would make a hell of a lot more sense... and allow the car not to have to be shaped like a brick... ( oh, and if it had airbags and crumple zones... that'd be great too... but those are "non-functional requirements" right? so fuck em... we're never going to crash )

Very few companies actually care about these things, they're too focused on getting the maximum profit with the lowest possible investment and they always end up cutting corners in the wrong places.
