I've had the opportunity to repair several projects where this thought was not kept in mind, it's certainly not my idea of fun. Technical support calls will take a large chunk out of any profit you might have made. Why not design with the end-user in mind right from the start? You'll have fewer changes to do later and a heck of a lot less tech support calls. You'll also have happier clients and a much better chance of getting return business.
