The point that I made was that they kept on endlessly adding features so much that the original plan became clumsy & corrupted.

Now I'm not trying to be nasty, just helpful. The author of the book "The Mythical Man-Month" discussed the IBM project, as he was involved in it. The point is that too many add ons can break the original concept, not to say that yours has, but it's just a friendly warning not to get too carried away... :-)
