Due to legal requirements I need insurance, I got a bunch of forms from potential insurers. One of them asks if I follow the ISO 9000, which for them is probably a good thing: "follow standards, avoid risks".
Similar to that there are not few standards and conventions, the lean x, the minimum viable y canvas, the 5 steps you need to start your own business, the 10 commandments,...
No point (IMHO) in discussing further the second dilemma. What do you think about the first one?

- On the one hand, I understand that in some cases failing at one of those checkpoints may directly imply or cause the failure of the business, and for a good reason. If you get out of the road, you may find your Viper hugging a tree.
- On the other hand, especially in the case of ISO standards, I have the feeling that it may be inefficient bureaucracy and lead to do like most businesses, i.e. fail. If you drive in a crowded lane, you may find a traffic jam and speed may be low, even zero.
- On the one hand, if you try to learn everything under the Sun, you will die before you start driving.
- On the other hand, driving without some basic notions and safety may get you killed.
