In that way we pull new work to us just-in-time rather than plan up a lot of work onto a waiting list, just-in-case. We become more agile and can change easier.

With new projects where a flow has not been established and there are still many unknowns both from the users' perspective as well as the developers' perspective, the work completed in the past may not be a very good predictor of the work that can be completed in the upcoming weeks.
