Does not seem to care if sizing is correct or erroneous? Just this favorite way?

My favourite way?

Asking others to do my work while I sit back and relax. OK I have to collect my pay at the end of the month, what a chore.

I read the specs the paid consultants provide me because that's what I pay them for since I don't know enough on this particular subject myself.

That's OK when it goes wrong, you have someone to blame. Also OK when it goes right, you did it, you take the credit.

Although it can work the other way.
