The great Gadsby strikes again. You always have such a great way with words. My favorite is step 4; a "significantly greater volume of input" indeed!

But when you lay it out on the table like that, it looks a lot like the workflow I see in a lot of places. Step 4 is usually a bit calmer, with less bulging neck veins and bared teeth, and more, how did Jaffa put it, "Thanks for doing X, however I think it could have been done better if Y & Z were done. What do you think?"
