Well, I went from academia (theoretical physics) to data science, and "good enough" solutions is exactly the thing I like the most.
That is - things that rather solve a concrete problem (given all constraints, including: dirty data, finite time, understanding the needs of clients) rather that have a pure and beautiful, but utterly useless for practical purposes, theorem to prove.
But sure, tastes do vary.
