It's because you are aware of the consequences. Creative marketing types 
are often not aware of anything beyond the brand idea itself and what's for 
lunch. It's just a matter of education.

But, of course, the proof is seen in the doing. Network managers having to 
deal with extra help desk loads caused by someone else's problem isn't an 
ironed out situation.

Sometimes these visible conflicts make a better end result if the conflicts 
are ironed out to everyone's satisfaction early.
