Yes, but functionality is the most basic requirement without which you cant proceed but which ever point I have mentioned those are you may or may not.

Well said. +5
I believe this is the one of the main reason why most projects fail or gets delayed. It's because developers are trying hard to build software with multitude of features that in the end, the end users may actually not benefit from.

I'd have to quote your entire post, assuming I did...
My experience has been...
THEM: Can you do A?
ME: Yes, here it is.
THEM: Oh, can you do B?
ME: Yes, here it is.
THEM: OK, can you do C?
ME: Yes, here it is.
THEM: How about D?
ME: Getting harder, but yes, here it is.
THEM: I really need E.
ME: Why didn't you ask for it first? I can do it, but it is much harder now.
THEM: I didn't know you could do it until you managed to do A, B, C,and D, but E is what I really wanted all along.
ME: You know, I could have given you E, much faster and easier if you had asked for it first.
THEM: I didn't know what you could do (as in product, not my abilities).
ME: Grrrr!

I'd send you a t-shirt, but I think you already have one.
What always galls me is their insistence on paving the cowpath by electronically replicating their manual (paper) methods.
I understand that they don't know my job, but they blink at you uncomprehending when you explain that the computer can transcend their manual methods and do something that is a quantum leap over what they've been doing.
I always think of it as that it is part of my job to become an expert at theirs, if only for a day, so I can separate what they are doing from what they want done.
A side rant is how they fail to realize how you can fold the process into individual steps and then wave their hand and say, "You don't have to worry about X, because it only happens every once in a while."
For example at one job, the hardware manager freaked when I explained to him I did not have 60 separate modules to handle the 60 diverters on the conveyor, I had only 1, but in regards to those occasional events, if they happened even once, I had to have code to deal with it. It didn't matter that it was only needed once every million cartons, I still needed to take the time to deal with it. What really caused him to lose it was when it was revealed it didn't matter where a photoeye was located, I just had to change a parameter number to set it's location. He was too used to building rails to place the photoeyes on so their location could be fine tuned.
But then it was truly amusing when we had a bug, he suggested we run the computer slower so it wouldn't happen. His other bright suggestion was to print out all the instructions that were executed so we could find out where it failed. 
You are free to make varoom sounds as you pass your hand over your head repeatedly.

In (my) reality, prioritizing functionality is probably the key aspect of delivering a software product.

I don't know, software isn't very functional if no attention is paid to the members of that list.

Sorry, but...a "Ham Sandwich" is just "lunch".

If you're looking at is as a developer all are important on the management side there are only two factors that are important;
1. Cost
2. Delivered on time
|
|
|
|

Yes but Cost is not a concern of developer
