I disagree with your second sentence above. I think it is shallow dismissals that are inappropriate here. Conversely, I have upvoted a number of long explanations of interesting topics.
If you don't have time to write a detailed refutation, that's entirely understandable! But if you do, I would love to read it.
I did appreciate your paragraph length comment on the matter elsewhere in this thread.
My original comment was one of those "if you know, you know" things.
Topics age out very quickly on this site.
I have two lengths: aphorism or six pages. The graf that you so kindly praise raises more questions than it answers and I am not comfortable with that.
I am also not comfortable with spoon-feeding my own views, which are evidently idiosyncratic. At medium length, that is the effect. To marshal citations and evidence in order to re-attain objectivity really does explode the level of effort. It is worthwhile, but this is a quick-hit forum, things roll off the front page usually in about an hour or two.
The flip side of that is that there will be other opportunities.
The topic of business-process analysis crops up often enough. I'll throw a few bricks the next time it does.
The topics of the roles of accountants and auditors crop up much less often, which is puzzling all by itself. But you absolutely cannot talk about ERP adoption without getting into those things up to the elbows.
