Therein lies the art and science of design: balancing the needs of the user
and the client. In other words, there's almost never enough time and money.
You make a wrong architectural or design decision on a multi-million dollar
project because you were unfamiliar with some technology that made some
interaction pattern possible *or* impossible (as in, beyond your means) you
have only yourself to blame. Knowing something (strategy) and implementing
it at the code level (tactics) are not the same thing.

What you don't know can hurt you.
