Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Perhaps I misread it, but the article leaves out an important factor; a project may be the brainchild of the president or CEO (more problematic if they are a founder.)
In one case in my past, a company president became convinced computers worked differently than they actually do and kept asking me to implement a feature to leverage this fantasy.
