I think the comments here are missing the point.

Each of the items on the list are things you or someone else in an organisation does in good faith.

That is why these work.

When you do them in bad faith, you can stretch the timelines for things significantly while the responsibility for such a delay ends up so diffused among the bureaucracy that no one takes the blame.

“It’s just harder to get things done in a big organisation” as they say.

If you keep a lookout for these, particularly when they may be not in good faith you can head them off.
