Feasibility: you hold 70% of the building's shape, and the profession pays you 8% of the fee to hold it.
Decisions remaining is inverse to time. Fees follow deliverables, not decisions. Result: the phase with the most leverage is the phase the profession invests in least. This is the misallocation.
