"Systems do not necessarily require master plans in order for development to begin. With the proper meta-constructs in place, their development can proceed in an almost 'organic' fashion."

Core assertion that piecemeal growth with meta-constructs removes the need for upfront complete plans.

Systems do not necessarily require master plans in order for development to begin; with proper meta-constructs, development can proceed in organic fashion.claim0.975
Core thesis that architectural flexibility through meta-constructs enables incremental development without complete upfront design.
We want to build systems which can be enhanced and modified in a piecemeal fashion. This is necessary because the requirements for systems inevitably change, sometimes even before they are deployed for the very first time.quote0.806

Our present forms of planning, design, construction, and production are deeply flawed because they do not include step-by-step adaptation and cannot in principle do so as they are.claim0.770
