However, it's a smart move on SAP's part considering how attractive an "improvement" this is for executives and business process experts, (as said previously) since it gives them more direct control. After all, the executives are the ones that decide on which ERP service to go with. Are there any developers that are actually excited about this?

Are there any developers that are actually excited about this?

Imagine a room full of suits. They're excited about their new toy and sit there developing some process. As the debate goes back and forth, they change things around, double back and tweak to their hearts delight, all the while creating and changing code behind the scenes. I don't even want to think about the yarn of spaghetti code there'll be left for the technical guys to sort out by the time the suits go home for dinner. No thanks, SAP.
