Agility is good for responding to changes both during and after
the initial development.  What needs to be considered is the
overall costs of the system compared to the benefits, whilst
taking into account the value of the choice points along the way
(real options).  The field that considers such tradeoffs is
called systems engineering and is not widely enough studied or
applied.
