Yes, but it will not fix all of them, and it will probably add a few new
ones.

You have to pick your poison, but, with a single configuration, you
would not be swimming against the current as much. With enough effort
and/or money, all problems can be fixed, but changing or circumventing
Project policies is often much harder or more expensive.
