When I was the IT guy at my uni department (not IT), it happened more than once that I was asked to help with the dissemination for some project.
The specs where usually: "We need a button".
Well, that's easy - but what should it do?
"When you click it, a form with 37 interdependent inputs shows up and there is ANOTHER button. That one sends you an email with a PDF with all those charts I have prepared in Excel."
They never wanted a program that generates a report, always "Just one Button".
