I think sometimes programmers forget how much work it is to create software at large companies. What may seem like a no-brainer five line code change to us on the outside is perhaps five man-weeks of work once you factor in all the required process overhead. We're picking on Microsoft here, but this is by no means limited to Microsoft; it's a simple function of scale and audience for all commercial software.
