Of course, this is all much more boring than just hacking up something
that you think is cool. I mean, the requirements could end up being
something you dislike or disagree with! The truth is that standards work
is boring tedious work.
While I largely agree with your email, one caveat:
The requirements may also become impossible, or extremely difficult, to actually put into code - it's happened before with standards - indeed standards relating to configuration access protocols.
Disliking or disagreeing with something because you've tried to code it and failed (or found it painful) is very useful information indeed.
Dave.
