- In short
- The premature-design-sketch failure is the pattern where a plausible, confidently-sketched architecture ends a discovery call before the four requirement categories have been questioned. A confident architecture proposed mid-call signals competence and stops further questioning, and minimising phrases like "there is a review step, but it is just a quick check" often hide a hard requirement such as a mandatory human authorization gate. The missing constraint surfaces later, usually in compliance or legal review, when it is far more expensive to accommodate.
