The trick is that planning is mostly descriptive, not prescriptive. You plan for what will happen, not what you want to happen

For anyone reading this who doesn't understand, shikata ga nai is a common saying in Japanese that literally translates to "nothing can be done." It's used very similarly to the English saying "it is what it is." It's not a reference insofar as just speaking in another language isn't really a reference to anything

In addition to the other comment, a lot of companies typically sell support for their software, not the software itself. That counts for a lot in the business world
