        Is this a variation of "the map is not the territory" or "all models are wrong, some are useful"

        Truly, once the documentation is lost, There comes then comments; Comments lost, comes then commit logs; After that, variable and function names; And when that's lost, there's coding style, The husk of all good faith, The rising point of anarchy.

        By the time the specification is written, the requirements have changed.

        as far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not certain; and as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality.

        Yes and write it anyway? The spec describes an ideal. Engineering proceeds in a cascade of ideals for handling some of reality, and the further facts of reality that preclude their attainment. The process is worth tracking. The ideals are simpler, so we write those down.

        tbf, though, maybe we should try writing down the realities too. It would make us less cynical, on the whole, if we kept track of our victories-so-far, and not just how far short of our ideals everything falls.
