Ah but this is a discussion board that had this particular project presented to them and so they discuss.
You're right in that "it is what it is" however there are many people that can learn from this process, the good and the bad. Truth is you should always run your contract through a postmortem and find out what you did well and what you can improve on. If you stop at "it is what it is", it will be that way next time as well and the time after that and the time after that...

Wolf,
I understand what your saying. However, I find it ultimately deleterious to accept contracts on work that I am not fully behind. Word of mouth is the way this business works more than any other. Work I'm less than happy with begets more work I'm less than happy with. I've made more money refusing jobs I wasn't behind than I have by taking ones I couldn't ultimately be proud of.

I do hope my comments are being taken as general comments on the business of design. The project at the center of this discussion is only the catalyst for my comments not the target.
