If SAP made toasters, the manual to run the toaster would be approximately 10,000 pages long. The toaster would come with 2,500 switches which would all have to be set in an exact pattern and in a precise sequence in order to toast specific kinds of bread. SAP's experts would establish each pattern as the "Best Practices" method of toasting that kind of bread. It would take a team of basis and functional contractors about 1 year to configure the toaster in the best manner, and then another 6 months to test it.
In the meantime, your entire family would need to attend extensive training classes on how to use the new toaster. In order to support end users and consultants, MIT would establish a list-serv for people to post questions and answers regarding toaster set-up and operation. Of course, the online help would randomly pop up in German. But once it was running, you'd get the best toast in the world.

and you are forced to upgrade your toaster every 3 years - at the same cost as buying a new toaster. BOOMED!

Untill you tried a different brand of bread, then you'll be back to cursing the ****er
but you haven't described the whole toaster line in the landscape you've only described the sandbox
now your familly will need :
european toaster line for developments of bread, dev, quality, regression
ditto americas, ditto australasia
consolidation line of toasters for consolidating the toast developments in the markets and continents into the global blueprint, again, dev, quality, regression
then the production line or maintenance line, dev, quality, PRODUCTION which is where consolidations from the global blueprint line are promoted and maintained
Prod will of course be highly available fail over etc
of course as a minimum the quality systems in all lines will have to be mirrors of production from the architectural perspective so that any toasting issues which might might stem from prod being a different architectural design to the rest of the development landscape are spotted before new toasting developments move into the production line
and that's only the toaster
then we'll need to apply support packs to the whole toaster landscape at least twice a year and more if other components in the kitchen have dependencies on the toaster being a higher version
now we're farming.

and since you cannot trust your family members with full access to the toaster settings you will need a few highly skilled contractors to develop family access profiles that differ from each other on each toaster in the .nett toaster landscape
