Comment (by cypherpunks):

 I believe many of these problems are ultimately the result of bad software
 engineering.  There is a reason you have a Requirements Document, and a
 Design Document.  Bad News when combining the two into one.  The
 Requirements document specifies WHAT, a Design Document specifies HOW.

 By putting them together you lock your implementation, and make it
 difficult to determine what is a functional defect.  For instance, if you
 had a Requirements document, this discussion would not be necessary.
