There is a fundamental question to ask in analyzing and engineering systems. Why don’t we use it more often?
A: We put this into the system.
B: And then what happens?
A: Well, now the system can do this great function for the users.
B: And then what happens?
A: For one thing, the users don’t call us so often.
B: And then what happens?
A: We have more time to ourselves to do what we want to do.
B: And then what happens?
The conversation can take several twists and turns depending on how A answers. This important thing is that B repeatedly asks the question.
It is a simple question—only four words. The words are easy to say. I often wonder why more people don’t ask the question more often. It provides useful answers. Of course A can become quite irritated, but then again, some persons hate it when you ask them anything.
Proceed with caution.
