I feel like "spaghetti garbage now, we'll fix it later" is a big part of why startups fail to execute well. Yeah you saved $8000 by launching your thing in a completely unmaintainable way, but now it's both harder to maintain and more likely to need it. Literally the first time it breaks you will probably lose that cost advantage just because it takes so long to debug. The point you should have made is that dogmatic approaches usually produce a lot of waste, but the example you gave us exactly why teams end up that way. Otherwise people come up with bullshit hacks like you describe and the entire team pays for it.
