I spent just enough time with MVC to experience that there's so many flavours and opinions and confusion and uncertainty. All of that was a smell that:

1. this is a complicated domain.

2. the lack of a very clear coherent "right answer" tells me not to dwell too much on it. I'll see more gains by getting my UIs into production and initiating the feedback loop than trying to get the architecture right.

As for item 2, I have absolutely iterated on underlying architecture, non-stop. But I feel I've been immensely successful in never letting that get in the way of shipping early and often and learning the 90% of stuff you can't learn without shipping.
