In real would engineering relying strictly on customer specifications and not listening to their desired intent will get you in to big trouble every time.

No, the point should ALWAYS be to find the easiest way to achieve the goal at hand. If I do something because I think it was the "customer's intent" at work instead of doing it the most efficient way possible I am wasting my time.
No, in real world engineering the customer specifications are either their intent or you don't agree to the project until you get them to be their intent because otherwise you can't tell them how much it costs. Developing off spec is a terrible idea, engineers aren't mind readers and most customers are unclear about what they want. If you let them keep changing their mind as you build you will end up over budget REAL quick.
