The above proposition can be correct, but why then enough eyeballs gather
at the bug-fixing stage. Instead if they gather right from the solution
inception & design stage probably the bug-fixing stage might not at all
exist !!!
because developing software is not like manufacturing a car. You cannot make a
car with only a vague idea of what the finished product is going to be - and
if you plan to write software *knowing* what the finished product is going to
be, you are only fit to work for microsoft.
