Yes. The fundamental weakness of the OPs view is that there are different types of „right“ depending on the correct tradeoffs to make. My main guide for that tradeoff is estimating how often code will be read vs. written vs. executed. All those combined plus the time it takes to do code and testing make up the total time to optimize. That way, I‘ll write exploratory code different than a prototype, which again is different to a protoduction test, a small production system I‘ll maintain myself, a large production system with different teams and software I‘ll completely hand over or open source as a library. Only an experienced engineer will realize that each of those versions of the same functionality will be „right“ in the context of their creation.
