Thanks for sharing this post. From my personal experience I also find this to be true. Software is complex and making assumptions are costly. It's better to pay the cost up front of doing clarifying assumptions before starting to code.

Yeah, in many situations the cost for doing bad assumptions can cost more in long-term than the software itselft, fighting against it should be number one goal in management :)
