"no one will remember if the game is late, only if it's great" (seen this attributed to a few different folks) But that also ignores the realities of deadlines, contracts, and that sometimes "done" is more important than "perfect" I'm just not totally bought into the idea that at large analysts and large investors can't recognize a short term for long term tradeoff.
