The annoying thing is, when it's happened it's been like a day's work tops. Making your initial declaration of "can't be done without rewriting all of it" look very silly.
It usually involves working backwards from unholy abomination the sales team, your manager and the customer fucked into existence between them, and just find out what problem the customer actually wants solving.
