I don't recall the title, but I think that one of the classic and memorable quotes was: "Nobody throws baby in the water!"

We could do this, if we invest and do it right then it will be of great benefit to the company.
It's a business critical system, we need it up, we need it available, we need it working as well as it possibly can, it will be fully monitored so that we know problems are happening before they do, the right people will be notified.
Let's get the licenses, let's get the machines, let's get the expert advice, and let's do this right.
It's going to cost this much.
Great, let's get this submitted, let's do this, this is a good idea.
But do we really need this bit?
And can't you work that out yourself?
And we don't currently have this so can we cope without it?
And couldn't we reuse this?
And what if we see how we do without this bit?
And if they just show you one thing then you can't do the rest on your own?
And. And. And.
Congratulations, we've delivered a barely adequate solution that someone needs to hand crank on an almost daily basis.

Isn't that the Minimum Viable Product approach?

No.
It is depressing penny pinching wank that occurs when companies are run by accountants rather than humans.

And that is what has created the economic climate we are in: accountants don't look to the long term, it's all immediate gratification.
Which means "outsource the manufacturing - we'll save 50p a unit!", and then wondering why the home market has collapsed (it's because nobody has a job any more, so they can't buy your products)
Which means "get the money from them now - we'll sort it out later", and then wondering why they get slapped with billions in PPI claims.
Which means ... you get the idea.
Accountants have a place; they are needed. But they shouldn't make the rules. And neither should the banks.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...
