I can get the "How can we handle the disconnect between reality & the system?"

But one the hardest parts is figuring out: When do we really have to?

I guess that the hint is here "It’s impossible to make this consistent or scalable. We want to distribute the benefits of disability insurance as widely as possible.", right?

What can help a business figure out if they already need "scalability, repeatability, & efficiency of automated processing"? Maybe, the use case is so rare, or the market unreachable, or knowledge so insufficient that it wouldn't be profitable. Maybe, in the eXploration phase, we might want to process things manually and learn from that... or maybe that can quickly become a bottleneck.

I still can't figure out the clues our questions to ask ourselves to figure out the sweet-spot between early and late design 🤔

... but maybe this will come up later and I just have to be patient 😉
