The second your procedure is published, it's outdated. Someone will find something missing or incorrect. Or take for example my recent case. Our company merged with another, my procedure was revised not only in name but I also removed items that were covered at the corporate level. Ten people reviewed it and everyone said it was fine. Within a day I noticed that all of my references to the attachments were pointing to the old revision. I revised the procedure two weeks later to fix the cross reference errors and guess what, I revised two things and added another. Absolutely correct.
