Therein lies the problem. Though Visio itself had some major issues *as
applied to design* too. But I don't think you want me to start getting
re-exercised about that, do you? :-)

One hopes for the best. But even the fact that the status quo has been
questioned is an opening. Just like the IT example above. Only a few years
ago, as a corporate citizen you didn't dare question IT. Now you can.
Tomorrow it'll be that much easier to actually refuse some of their insane
policies wrapped in dogma and self-preservation.
Until about a year ago, I used to get a lot of off-list email here from
people genuinely flabbergasted that I'd even question this or that sacred
cow. A lot of "best practices" stuff. People incredulous that one could do
things differently or that a lot of the faith-based stuff floating around
could be successfully ignored.
I usually took the time to explain, my POV. Like I said, I am patient. :-)
