I've made the mistake of creating this kind of problem many moons ago. The dream was to have non-technical domain experts implement the product. I did not know at the time that this was a cursed problem. Probably one of the most cursed, in fact.

Putting it my sql based scripting engine took 2 weeks. Backing it out is going on 4 years now. Perhaps the biggest technical misstep I've ever made. It's kind of like Pandora's box because once the non technical people feel the speed/control, they'll never let it go. You could place a literal money printer on their desk as an alternative and they'd reject it if you took their new power away.
