Imagine there's a developer and a requirements gatherer working in a team and a customer asks for a chip. The requirements gatherer(RG) tells the dev to make a 14-pin IC for the said purpose. The dev after initial designs realises that 14 pins are not enough, but sends the IC with a few functionalities compromised, nonetheless. The customer realises the fault and complains to the company. Now who is to take the blame for it. RG or dev?
