what Mark CIO cries for in his sleep. Sees it as a good thing not as a bad.
Letting the dozy clients add more work without extending the deadline.
Mark won't do anything about all this feature creep, it's like getting 1,000 cold henrys!

noun
A condition in which one or more people, often in the form of a committee, progressively increase the scope and complexity of a project until the project is deemed infeasible and subsequently cancelled to the detriment of all involved.
Such projects are typically of a technical nature. Likewise someone who commits creeping featurism is most likely to be an engineer or otherwise technically advanced but not business minded.
Although market research showed that a second factory would be profitable, once the engineering department became involved, creeping featurism set in and it was self-evident that an additional plant was not a viable idea.
Feature creep means too many unwanted features that clearly don't fit the original design and/or purpose.
Elari KidPhone 3G is a kids' smartwatch, it already had shitty battery life, but they added a MP3 player! That's some of the wildest feature creep I've ever seen in a firmware update!
