It's not. Pushing forward blindly largely builds tech debt either through paths that get abandoned or eschewing documentation & understanding. Most teams would benefit from going slower with many more small probes to figure out how to build the best feature vs throwing tons of big features out.

My opinion on this is that a slow Michaelangelo (eg: every stroke matters) is a better product than a really huge Pollock.
