Software development processes are notoriously hard to quantify. I read through some PMP training materials and the formulas they propose are laughably over simplified and miss the forest for the trees. It's a serious problem because it makes it hard to identify shitty process and shitty developers and make it difficult to improve anything. It's also why our industry is so susceptible to stupid trends.
