Then that needed to be specified and coded for in the beginning versus at the end. The problem is that the automation was written by groups doing other things and with the idea of lowering the tire fires of 2015 while also trying to get all of the special things we were doing. That means a lot of flexibility was not coded in because that was more code paths than anyone had time to look at.
