I spoke with a development team last month about their biggest regrets. The recurring theme? They built features based on vague requirements, then had to rebuild them twice when the actual needs became clear. Each rebuild cost time and money.

Something a product manager shared stuck with me: "Our developers asked what a feature should do, and we said 'make it flexible.' Six months later, the feature was overbuilt, confusing, and nobody used it. We should have been specific about what it needed to do."

That's the cost of unclear requirements.
