A well defined doc evolves over time. it gets sharper with real-world scenarios, incidents, and experiments. Before Voyager 1, we didn’t have that kind of experience. You can’t predict everything upfront.

I’d argue that you must not be working on interesting problems if you think that “engineering is not that hard”
