Software is never perfect. You can tinker with it endlessly. If you're a perfectionist then software development is probably not the career for you. I look at writing software in the same way that an author might look at writing a novel. At some point you have to publish. There are always alternative plots that you can think of, the characters aren't always as interesting as they could be and sometimes there are regrets and missed opportunities. Also readers will have diverse opinions about what you wrote, which may be quite different from how you imagined the novel would be interpreted.
