I'm so surprised that there are people who actually have a sense of things. I try to tell others all the time that in software having an inexperienced developer you need to multiply with 3x for best hopes and with 10x for common case, sometimes even experienced devs ending up between 2x and 5x.
People often don't believe me, some reason being that some developers really deliver on time and sell it as finished but then having the rest of the team fixing bugs and working around strange APIs for months. Often it's just that they also haven't experienced the pain of developing something of reasonable scale and stability.
No man, these are not tears, I just got something in the eye.
