Some people want the spec to stand as a contract, so you can then hand  
the spec over to the proverbial trained monkeys and have them write  
all the necessary code from scratch exactly the way you want it written.

These are not people I enjoy working with, so I play loose with the  
specs and only spec stuff that matters to me at the time, code that  
little bit, and get on with the next terribly pressing task.
