Let me read you a specification I got for a project a while back:

Build and implement an Intranet system based on Oracle

That was the start, and finish of the spec we got. Question about what sort of information the intranet stores? Here's your answer:

As long as it uses Oracle

Standing your ground where Oracle is involved usually just means quitting. Not every engineer has that luxury.

If that were the extent of the "specification" I got, and I couldn't get any additional information, then ...

Yes, I'd quit. Period. End of discussion. I couldn't work at a company that operated that way.
