To add my 5c of experience in customer projects:

If you talk to a customer, there are three important pieces of
information to get sorted out:
1) what the customers says that he wants
2) what he wants
3) what he actually needs.
If you get the impression that all three match, you have either an
exceedingly well-informed customer or you didn't understand all aspects
of the situation. (Personally, I always assume the latter, if only to be
on the safe side...)

Regards,
Joachim
