Hi Gorry,

* I suggest a more powerful chip design might not have reduced performance, but
would cost more: /but the overall performance of the system will be reduced. /
- so maybe either performance is reduced or the system cost increased?

The practical issue here is that on all hardware, if you increase the complexity of a pipeline, the performance will be reduced.  This is a statement of what happens in the real world on installed systems.

The purpose of this ID was to provide an practical overview of the real-world problems that operators are likely to experience, and why they happen, rather than getting into the thornier issue of analysing the what-ifs and wherefores of design choices.  So we deliberately steered clear of value judgements, including the trade-offs between cost, complexity and performance - there's too much scope in there to get lost in the long grass.
