+## Baseline
+
+### What do abstractions achive
+
+- Structure through simplification
+- Complexity made simple
+- Hiden Details, visible value
+
+### Dilemma
+
+1. Platform team creates abstraction
+2. Abstraction works for 10 Teams
+3. Other team requests extension
+4. Question: How do we deal with this
+
+### Possible Solutions
+
+- Add Config Options: Increases complexity of abstraction
+- Make One-off exceptions: Breaks standardization, introduces inconsistency
+- Require conformity: Hinders innovation, creates enemies
+- Allow bypassing: Creates shadow it, risking security and resource control
+
+=> Debt trap: The cost of maintaining a stable platform rises and rises
+
+## The debt cycle
+
+### The abstraction cycle
+
+1. Simplify
+2. Adobt
+3. New Requirements
+4. Add complexity
+5. Repeat
+
+TODO: Steal image
+
+### Warning signs
+
+- Rizing customization requests
+- Workarounds
+- Shadow IT
+
+### Impact
+
+- Each new feature becomes harder to implement
+- Teams lose trust in the platform capabilities
+- Platform evolutions slows down
+- New tech is difficult to incorporate
+
+## Abstraction elacity
+
+> The abstraction should stretch a bit to accommodate change without brakuing
+
+- Adaptability: Ease of handling new requirements
+- Transparency: Understand what your user wants and why
+- Extension PAtterns: Document ways to customize the platform behavior
+- Migration Paths: Ease of moving away from the platform abstraction
+
+### Elasticity
+
+- Can teams access lower level controls (when needed) while staying with the abstraction
+- Do users understand what happens underneath (when needed)
+- Are ther documented extension/customization points?
