mmm, there is something to be said for perfection being the enemy of productive.

Eg for software, at some point you have to stop tweaking and just ship.

More generally, sometimes habits that are recommended in order to boost productivity and/or happiness can act in such a way as to reduce productivity and/or happiness.

Maybe that's not what you were talking about though?

Sure, am also all for efficiency and if something gives marginal improvement for a disproportionate amount of time or efforts,then most of the time it's not needed.

I was more against this current "let it be" mindset that leads to all those buggy and low-quality things. But even more about in daily life, with people embracing their "mediocre-self".
