snake-oil simplification

When someone oversimplifies a task in order to get your buy-in. This is something done typically by sales people in order to clinch a sale, or by software management in order to convince developers to assign small estimates to large and complicated tasks

Who agreed to the effort estimates on this anyway!?!? We're screwed man, we'll never make this date!
