I use this chart from XKCD https://xkcd.com/1205/ https://xkcd.com/1205/ to decide how much time to spend on something. Sometimes you need to do something that takes longer if there is a broken process that is only going to get worse. I'm like the author, I do fix things as I find them, but only if there is test cases to run afterwards. I'm unlikely to mess with something if it's not fully hooked into our test environment.
