See also the "Second System Syndrome" in the Mythical Man Month: "An architect's first work is apt to be spare and clean" Brooks wrote. He knows he doesn't know what he's doing, so he does it carefully and with great restraint."

The second system is usually overengineered, full of unnecessary "frills and embellishments" - in short, a mess.
