Actually there is another 90-10 philosophy. Take care of 90% of the
requirement up front and don't sweat the 10%.
Example, boss or client needs an answer. Get him an answer right away,
don't sweat the 10% issues. If they want more, they will clarify.
However, the trolling here uses the 10-90 rule. Harp on the 10% and
ignore the 90, hoping no one will notice.
