On BDUF:

‘And as architecture is “about the parts of the system that are expensive to change”, any such changes would be very expensive. Grady Booch probably involuntarily fueled this fear with his famous quote:

“Architecture represents the significant design decisions that shape a system, where significant is measured by cost of change.”’

Booch's characterization helps us draw attention to significant decisions that shape the system -- no matter when those decisions are made. It takes judgment to discern which decisions are significant (strategically and structurally -- or significant to system purpose, and the capabilities and properties of the system, as it co-evolves with its various contexts). And judgment to discern when to tackle architecturally significant decisions (framing and resolution). Etc.
