I actually don't understand why it is shortsighted.
It's an extreme point of view, sure, but in a perfect world this would be the case every time you build something.
On the opposite end of the spectrum you have to rewrite the entire codebase every time you interact with it to make it fit.
Reality is somewhere between those.

Yet the same people who hate devs spending time on refactors also laugh when you give them a six month estimate for feature X. I think "perfect" is "good enough" in this context. "Good enough" is always preferable to "non existent yet theoretically perfect".
