Perhaps it's also the reason why IT (as a whole) is no longer solving problems: too many fancy tools, very few of them solving true business problems.
But hey, some consultant from the big4 said this will be the solution (he/she doesn't understand the problem).

@en3py I think there also is too much "hacking" in IT and too little "engineering". IT loves navel gazing instead of doing the actual work of talking to people in order to understand their real problems
