Yes, and the other point of good renderings is that it shows you haven't just spent the last half decade sitting around the office finding all the cat videos on Youtube and making a playlist. That's what made the CalgaryNEXT details so anti-climatic, it was entirely crap that could have been presented in 2010 with exactly the same (lack of) detail.

Obviously there's more to a project of this magnitude than pretty drawings and some blackmail pictures of city council taking bribes from the taxicab companies. However, if you can't even do the simple stuff right, how can anyone expect you to do the complex things properly? Even the freakin' Oilers did better - much better. It's like losing a game of tic-tac-toe to a lobotomized chicken.
