Hi,

I once got the assignment to add some functionality the ITSM notification 
system.

I could probably have hammered away right away, adding a bunch of field and
loads of FLTR/ACTL/ESCL to do this. Maintaining that solution would have been
a nightmare.

Instead I sat staring at the existing code for a week, and finally I added one
FIELD and one FLTR, and then changed one FIELD and one FLTR.

These were 4 very expensive workflow objects!
