working as designed: adj.

[IBM]

1. In conformance to a wrong or inappropriate specification; useful, but misdesigned.

2. Frequently used as a sardonic comment on a program's utility.

3. Unfortunately also used as a bogus reason for not accepting a criticism or suggestion. At IBM, this sense is used in official documents! See BAD.
