Tim posted about trying to explain Yagni on Twitter and after looking it up I realized it's something I've tended towards without having a vocabulary for it - you know that sense when something is so familiar that you think there's got to be a technical term for it.
And a person need not be an "Extreme Programming" proponent to see the truth; I have a Yagni moment almost each day when a person asks a question about how to do something and I'm more bothered with the question (why on earth would you do that???!!) than coming up with a solution.
