I teach the Architecting the Enterprise TOGAF 9 cert course and find myself in constant rear guard action against the notion that EA can be done from a cookbook. Climb back from the ledge - you are not alone, even among those of us being paid for this stuff. I’m one of those being paid… and indeed everything you say is true.

EA can be a horribly depressing place, especially when money is tight. Don't worry about the occasional vastly wrong output from some people, since IT has always been like that. Like the city of New York, its sometimes heaven and sometimes hell, but its the definition of the environment that allows it to have both extremes, with little gems to be weedled out of the woodwork whist ignoring the patches of rot. Ever tried getting a TV slot to make you focus of EA cash as well as questions?
