I do mean build the perfect system (not best but error free system) first time round. Really. It is the "ongoing system development" that trubles me for the waste on the predicable and avoidable errors. RUP uses iterations to correct errors (ongoing systems development?) that takes 80% of developers' time according to NIST. I do agree with your "impossibility" for today's prevailing worldview and associated methodologies. Herbert Simon (inventor of hierarchy theory, Norbel Laurate) proved mathematically that hierarchies will evolve much more rapidly from elementary constituents than will non-hierarchic systems containing the same number of elements. Today's business approach is based on mechanistic worldview rather than living systems' worldview. The problem is neither in technical nor in the process but the worldview, our conception of the world. When our worldview is out of date our behavior they drive is out of date.
