- In short
- Trade-off communication exists to let a stakeholder make an informed, actionable decision, not just to demonstrate the architect's technical accuracy. It is the lifecycle step that follows the constraint set discovery produced, defending the design against those constraints. A technically correct presentation can still fail if it does not equip the stakeholder to act, and agreement in the room is not the same as the stakeholder having understood the full trade-off.
