magic_lobster_partyI think this is a bit disingenuous. There’s no customer interaction in these panels.
So waterfall would be: Customer says they want to go to Mars. You spend years building a rocket capable of going to Mars, draining all the company budget in the process. Customer then clarifies they actually meant they wanted to go to Mars, Pennsylvania, USA - not the planet!
