Yes. I very much agree. Not only are most software bugs actually requirements bugs, the speed you can build software with good requirements is absolutely bonkers.

I've seen a project go from an empty repo to production in two months with a set of requirements that were completely unambiguous and rock solid. I've also seen ambiguous and vacillating requirements drag out the implementation a ~30 LOC feature for months.
