This idea of anti-values helps explain the brilliance of Google's "focus on the user", a value which I did indeed remember and frequently use as justification for a course of action frequently. The anti-value / tradeoff is implicit but clear enough: focus on the needs of end users over other stakeholders. This was a very useful heuristic in Web DevRel because there's often a tension between making something easy for developers versus making something easy for users. E.g. making a site accessible makes it easier for users at the expense of more work & complexity for the developers.
