I see that as not so much of a 'shape shift' as 'knowing when a quick hack is the acceptable short term solution'. It's like saying, "this will keep you up and running for the immediate future, BUT it is not a proper solution"

It's more like the profti is a superset of the qualities other types rather than a different species all together...

The true headaches begin when the PHBs on a project try to coerece a Profti into a HCP because their ideas are poor and s/he isn't 'yes man'ing enough. /me winks at jeffa
