Some of the problems of the initial sign-up for Obamacare can be attributed to politics. Obama and company were loath to issue many rules until after the 2012 election as they feared giving ammunition to the Republicans, who, in turn, blocked some funding. But some are also due to the failure of the government to provide specifications until this past spring.
Perchance, Obamacare will be remembered for its highly inauspicious beginning as a flesh-and-blood system. The starting date, January 1, is only 79 days away, many of which will be consumed with such really important matters as the shutdown and the debt ceiling. It sounds as though there is still a lot of coding and testing to be done.
