Not so much, I’m talking about pure poundage of production: code, pots, designs, sculpture. Iteration is the only way to make something better.

Anecdote:

One semester, a professor decided to split his ceramics class up into two sections and see which would create better pots. One half would be graded on their final pot, which would be judged in terms of creativity and technical skill. The other half would be judged in terms of poundage of “acceptable” pots. 50 lbs would be a “C” 65 would be an “B” and 90 would be an “A.”

At the end of the semester, the best pots out of the entire class were picked from the huge number of iterations that the poundage group created.
