Generally, I'd suggest that all those points argue in the opposite  
direction.

Maybe 5 full releases in, with the help of a bunch of other smart  
people, you'll get the maturity of system that would rival those  
already out there for all the above, but to get there quickly? It  
would be an inordinate stroke of luck and/or genius.
