Sure but that doesn't mean that it's not worth talking about complete optimization. If you know the absolute best technique then you can decide which parts are worth the extra time for you. Or sometimes you feel like a burger and you have a lot of time, so it's worth knowing the optimal way to do it all. I think of it more like... a bad burger is still good, but that doesn't mean it can't be better.
