It would be funny if it was not so sad. I often wonder how well built the
houses are on Extreme Makeover. It may be possible to build a house in 7
days, but that does not mean it is smart to do so. It takes time to
install plumbing systems, etc, no matter how many people.

10,000 volunteers is just to many to manage over 17 days.

I have often wondered how well some of those quick rebuilds hold up. I
have seen some of the house flipping programs and in a week or two the whole
house has been rebuilt. Doesn't it take time for the plaster to dry before
painting ? Maybe more time for other things to setup such as the floor
tiles.
