Going "what if?" and then validating a customer requirement that exists NOW is NOT the same thing as trying to pre-empt a customer's requirement which might exist in the future.

Audit trails are commonly neglected coz somebody didnt ask the right questions, not coz somebody didnt try to anticipate the future.

But how do you ask "the right questions" without imagining many future possibilities and then trying to discern which ones are important?

It seems like a distinction without a difference to me.
