This is timely. I am trying to explain to a bunch of investors in terms
they understand why a disciplined development process is essential for
their client to stop from missing product release deadlines. The problem
with the line is, I would need to start by explaining what a "bug" is.

Over the years as we all have here been faced with speaking and entirely
different language to those who grease development and make it possible.

Explained that quadrupling the number of people on the project was
probably going to hurt more than it helps in this case with. "Nine
ladies cannot have a baby in one month".
