The screaming is needed because I am trying to knock some sense into
programmers who act like 14-year olds when they are proven WRONG.

NRGeti, you are touching on some the Great Divide between Clients who only
typically have a vague idea of what they want, and developers that have to
know exactly what the Client wants.

I just ran into this problem myself in a dispute over features in a web
app... a client wanted news topics, so i built a simple news engine, based
on the money rate involved, they come back saying "Oh... but we wanted to be
able to categorize the news"... they didnt ask for that and why would I just
automatically put it in when I'm not getting paid very much in the first
place? Their retort was "but wouldn't you tell us?" How am I suppose to
read their minds? ie, "Its not in the SPECS"

The specs are a near-formal contract of what is expected between both
parties, how can we deal "at arms length" with each other if we don't even
fully know what each party wants out of the working relationship?
