no no no, this is the wrong way around
because sales and marketing sell it before it even exists
Sales: "Can we do this?
Dev: “No, we cannot.”
Sales: “Uhhhh… But I already told the customer we could.”
Dev: “That’s called lying. You lied to the customer.”
Sales: “…So you’ll have it done next week?”
Dev: “I’m going to need at least three weeks.”
Sales: “…But I already told the customer two weeks.”
Dev: Sigh
