And the university does not have a network diagram? and implementing a network 

The information, referenced as at start, was about design options not about a 'network plan' being reviewed

These kinds of options and issues also apply to any network and may not be peculiar to universities. In the end you have a design and resource plan

Ok, fix it but a fix where is needed. I wonder if a fix by policy is what's needed in this case

We are actually imposing constraints eg end-user category, now 5:1 expectation, etc

This was the frustration with coming up with an acceptable justification which Andrew expressed and along the thread, which led to my challenging him that we fix it, instead of complaining.
