> The vast majority of the failed projects fail at the planning stage.
This is my experience in 20 years of SWE as well.
The biggest project failure debacles were obvious from the get-go to all the senior ICs on the team. Generally managers were pushing them for "reasons", and in some cases even wink-wink about the fact they too didn't believe in the project but.. "reasons".
