Saying that the term was never used isn&#x27;t really refuting the point. It doesn&#x27;t matter whether you coded back in those days. Anyone who looks at (or used) the software being produced back then can see that continuous software delivery wasn&#x27;t really the norm, probably due at least in part to technical limitations. I&#x27;m thinking about your average Microsoft product, but there are plenty of examples even today of poorly-designed waterfall projects (e.g., healthcare.gov for Obamacare).
