So to summarise: „It depends“

Well, no... the summary is, you have to think hard in order to use your constraints as effectively as possible or the outcome will suck.

„You have to think hard“ is just „it depends“ worded differently.

If you don’t have to think hard then it also doesn’t depend on the details/circumstances and the outcome will be fine regardless of constraints.
