    My dear
    It is really wonderful essay but I think if the project manager excuse is scope, Time , and budget. This is may backfire on him since the project manager is assigned to manage these triple constraint.
    I believe Points 1, and 2 are the same as
    1. Requirement is not clear leads to 5. Scope not defined or incomplete.
    hope this is may help
