I don’t disagree with this :) It absolutely depends on the situation though. Having a foundation which is maintained and (perhaps more importantly) documented properly by a community can be quite powerful.
My original point was more about the need for a long term technical vision, because I’ve found this to be an invaluable guiding star as I make smaller decisions along the way.
