Curiously, as long as I've been in this field, I've never happened across the nine-women-baby argument. Maybe I have, and just never registered it. But it is very commonly said, people tell me.

Now, there is a counter argument. It goes like this:

"You cannot put nine women in a room and have them produce a baby in a month. But, if you stagger their pregnancies, you can get them to produce a baby a month, starting at the nine-month mark."

This counter-argument speaks to the concept of SCRUM and Agile, in which short cycle deployments are the norm.

Yeah, sure, but I don’t want 9 babies, I just want 1 good one.
