what to build?

I wonder if any of you builders have gotten a formula for a tailoring a ski for a certain person or conditions. In all my years of skiing, I haven't skied that many different skis. I imagine that the ski that is most versitile is also the one that is the most mediochre. I am interested in what you builders think is the most important factor for making a good ski.
camber and flex for a persons weight:
length:
width and side cut:
Finally, Is it impossible to make a ski that has a long sweet spot under foot for packed conditions and still skis the powder comfortably? Do you feel that optimum specifications for hard pack vs powder make it impossible to make an exceptional ski for both?
