You know, you're just going to have to stop being so rational on this thread. There are people here (and I'm not mentioning any names, Melissa) that will be all over your case. After all, Tom Siebel surely considered all these risks before breakfast. :-)

I agree with your assessment, especially the risks around D. All the Scopus installations I've seen (and I've seen quite a few) involve a fair bit of customization, from simple things like configuation to complex ones like screen and schema changes. And a number of them also have money sunk into integrations with other apps. It's going to be expensive to upgrade/change to what new integrated product SEBL/SCOP come up with.

Of course you may not relate to this in as much as you work at Clarify, where ease-of-upgrade is a way of life. Not! :-)
