Yes it's problematic because some organizations want to know the overall cost before embarking on a multi-year project. That's a hard number to pin down often. It's maybe easier to set a burn rate and a 5 year horizon for those cases rather than trying to pin down the cost from a early set of features that may change in the intervening years.
